Previous Ask EMWD! Questions and Answers that have been featured in our monthly eConnect.
A: Schools and parks across EMWD’s service area are among the most forward-thinking when it comes to being efficient water users.
EMWD has worked with both schools and public parks so that many of those facilities are using recycled water to irrigate their fields. This reduces their demands on our drinking water supplies and also provides significant cost savings for them.
Approximately 35 percent of EMWD’s overall water supply is met through recycled water. EMWD currently has 27 schools and 76 parks in its service area using recycled water. Recycled water is also not subject to the same restrictions during the drought as potable water, so these facilities can remain green so our families have a place to recreate.
