2. New Development Groundwater Requirements. For provisions related to the
requirements of new development, see Section 9.
SECTION 5. Recycled (Non-Potable) Water
A. Non-Potable Water. The District shall strive to maximize the use of non-potable water for
beneficial reuse and prioritize non-potable water use over potable water use where
regulations permit. This shall be accomplished by:
1. Enhancing the Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility to maintain an exceptional
quality of recycled water to maximize the beneficial use of the water resource.
2. Developing a strategy to expand the District’s existing non-potable water distribution
system to provide for cost-effective delivery of non-potable water.
3. Aggressively develop and market the use of recycled water as a substitute for potable
water where regulations permit.
4. The District staff shall maximize the use of non-potable water for developments with
the use of dual plumbing and other measures to provide for a more reliable water
supply system.
SECTION 6. Water Conservation and Use Efficiency
A. Water Use Efficiency. The District shall develop and maintain policies that reduce peak
seasonal water demands and encourages the reduction of per capita/per day consumption
of potable water through:
1. The use of non-potable water for residential, commercial, institutional and agricultural
irrigation demands;
2. Educational programs;
3. Rate structures;
B. Statewide Conservation Efforts. The District shall participate in the California Urban Water
Conservation Council and implement those best management practices (BMPs) that
provide the District with a reasonable cost : benefit relationship.
C. Conservation Programs. The District shall develop and implement water conservation
tools that focus on education based programs that can be implemented at the local
schools and information campaigns for our current customers.
SECTION 7. Allocation of Imported Supplemental Water
