It looks like San Diego is the first place in California to use "recycled" water as regular tap water.
"San Diego could become the first California city to use treated wastewater to augment its reservoirs after the City Council voted 6-2 in favor of a contract for a demonstration project last Tuesday.
The $6.6 million contract with Camp Dresser McKee includes the design, installation, testing and operation of a demonstration-scale Advanced Water Purification Facility at the North City Water Reclamation Plant.
San Diego currently imports over 80 percent of its water from sources that are steadily declining, such as the Colorado River and San Joaquin Delta. Proponents see this process, called indirect potable reuse (IPR), as a possible solution for San Diego's water problems."
Of course, if judges had not stopped the full use of delta water, along with other sources, we would not have to use toilet water for drinking.
And, we would save hundreds of millions of dollars! This is part of the affect of out of control judges--toilet water from the tap.
