Recycled Water: What Goes Around Comes Around

In 1992 San Francisco enacted a recycled-water ordinance, establishing the framework for developing recycled water as a source of water supply for the city. The San Francisco Public Utility Commission (SFPUC) is in the midst of a community planning process to help develop a recycled-water project to serve customers in our eastern neighborhoods. Suzanne Gautier and Barbara Palacios of the SFPUC will present the planning process and describe the goals and challenges faced in implementing recycled-water projects in San Francisco.
