WateReuse California works with our appointed and elected officials to pass legislation and develop regulations that will accelerate the implementation of both non-potable and potable reuse.
To recognize the innovative uses of recycled water throughout California, WateReuse California is partnering with waterloop on a series of videos. The first video highlights the Santee Lakes near San Diego. Check out the video below and look out for more coming soon! youtube.com/shorts/KxYRD...

What category led in recycled water use from 2020-2023 in California?

If you guessed (or looked at the graph below) landscape and golf course irrigation, you are correct!

Agricultural irrigation and potable uses (2019 leader) aren’t far behind.

Thank you @senmcnerney.bsky.social for being a champion of recycled water! WateReuse CA is proud to sponsor SB31!
Yes! The California Senate Environmental Quality Committee today unanimously approved my SB 31, which would help drought-proof California by boosting the use of recycled water.

Senator McNerney (CA District 5) and WateReuse California recently testified in front of the Natural Resources and Water Committee in support of SB31. As @senmcnerney.bsky.social stated, “this bill is common sense.” and will help California to reach our water recycling goals.
