Reclaimed Water

Ensuring an abundant, safe water supply for the future

Reclaimed water is wastewater that has been treated to very high standards to remove harmful organisms and pollutants so that it can be safely reused. Using reclaimed water helps to conserve drinking water – a precious, limited resource.
