SDCTA Supports SB 322 - Amending the Water Code Related to Water Reclamation
While the Department of Public Health is required to provide uniform water recycling criteria for reservoir augmentation, and the feasibility for producing the same with respect to direct potable reuse by the end of 2016, they are not on track to do so. SB 322 steps in and authorizes the department to work with the National Water Research Institute (NWRI) for purposes of the expert panel to assemble the expert advisory panel to move the process forward. This action will increase the likelihood of success, and ensure that more time is not lost.
