Haynes Construction Update

The LA Department of Water and Power is now dismantling Units 5 and 6 of the Haynes Steam Plant adjacent to Leisure World.

Workers are cutting away the metal frame of the units. They are lifted and carefully lowered to the ground for removal with the use of torches, excavators and a crane. Workers are visible on unit structures as they are dismantled.

Hazardous materials from Units 3 and 4 are also being removed in preparation for their dismantling in early 2021.

Monitoring instruments will measure dust, noise and vibration levels during all work to maintain levels below the required limits. Only a few trucks will enter and leave the plant during daytime hours. No traffic impacts have been reported.

The LADWP will continue to provide periodic updates on the dismantling work to Leisure World residents. For more information, call the Project Information Line at (800) 531-6638.
