Water reuse: projecting markets and costs

Some 200 ML of water are reused tn Los Angeles and Orange counties each day for a variety of uses. Spurred by a statewide drought some two years ago, area water and wastewater utilities conducted the Orange and Los Angeles Counties Water Reuse Study, which revealed that long-term reuse potential for the region is 1150 ML/d. The study spawned a lo-year project plan that would expand reuse applications and make water reuse an official part of the California Water Plan.
