Target

A numerical target has not been formally set at this time.

Purpose

This Service Level represents SRCSD's commitment to environmental stewardship and enhancing the water supply through water recycling.

Critical Activities

The amount of water recycling is highly dependent on planning and implementing water recycling projects. This includes selecting projects; mobilizing support for projects; formalizing partnerships and agreements to support projects; permitting; acquiring, financing; and designing and constructing new facilities. In the short term, the amount is driven by operation of the existing treatment facilities.

2009 Performance
