Water Recycling
spacer

RMC has completed recycled water planning and implementation for all of the major urban centers in California.

Recycled Water Treatment Facility

City of Antioch

Recycling Plant

RMC provided services through all phases of project development and implementation for a 12.2-mgd, $18-million water recycling facility in Antioch, California. The tertiary treatment facility serves one of the largest industrial reuse programs in the state and received a 2002 Outstanding Recycled Water Project award from the WaterReuse Association. RMC provided:

  • Facility evaluation, predesign, design, construction support, and startup services on an accelerated schedule
  • Permitting, including Title 22 Engineer’s Report, NPDES amendment for the RWQCB, CEQA, BAAQMD air permits, and stream-crossing
  • A dye study to verify chlorine contact time and submitting the results to DHS

Recycled Water Project

Pasadena Water and Power

Rose Bowl

RMC is managing implementation of the City’s recycled water system after many years of planning and preliminary studies. We are:

  • Preparing a feasibility study for the first three phases of the City’s recycled water system
  • Moving Phase 1 of the project forward into preliminary and final design
  • Responsible for CEQA compliance (MND) for Phases 1 through 3
  • Evaluating indirect potable reuse via groundwater recharge of advanced treated water
  • Assisting with grants and loans for planning, design and construction; customer coordination; and permitting

Watsonville Area Recycled Water Project

City of Watsonville and Pajaro Valley Water Management Agency

Recycling Plant

To help address over-pumping of the groundwater basin, the City of Watsonville and Pajaro Valley Water Management Agency (PVWMA) teamed up with RMC Water and Environment to study the feasibility of using recycled water as an alternative irrigation supply. Through extensive pilot testing and working address over pumping of the groundwater basin, with local growers, RMC:

  • Identified, designed and constructed a water recycling project that exceeds Title 22 requirements and provides superior protection for consumers and sensitive crops
  • Provided regulatory permitting, funding support and engineering services during construction
  • Designed key elements of the $48-million project, including a 7.7-mgd tertiary treatment facility and 20 miles of distribution piping

IPR/Reservoir Augmentation Demonstration Project

City of San Diego

Reservoir

RMC is managing a demonstration program exploring treatment technology feasibility for producing water that can be sent to a reservoir and later distributed as drinking water.
We are:

  • Providing the technical, water quality, environmental, public outreach, regulatory, and funding requirements necessary to implement a full-scale project
  • Frequently testing the advanced treated water to determine the effectiveness of the treatment equipment in removing contaminants
  • Gathering and analyzing operational data to refine operation and maintenance estimates for a full scale system

Recycled Water Master Plan

City of Los Angeles

LA Basin

RMC is leading Los Angeles’ Recycled Water Master Plan, one of the most cutting edge and comprehensive recycled water planning efforts in the country. Our team is:

  • Conducting five separate planning efforts in the areas of: indirect potable reuse, non-potable reuse, satellite treatment, system reliability, and long-term recycling vision
  • Envisioning rapidly expanding on L.A.’s recycled water systems through indirect potable reuse via groundwater recharge
  • Investigating possibilities for expanding recycled water use to significantly reduce the need for imported water in the future

Salt and Nutrient Management Plan

City of Santa Rosa

The City brought in RMC to help develop a Salt and Nutrient Management Plan and navigate the new regulatory process in response to the State Water Resource Control Board’s Recycled Water Policy. RMC has developed specific salt/nutrient analysis tools in GIS to better manage source identification and loading analysis. The plan will:

  • Identify and manage salt and nutrient inputs
  • Help streamline permitting of recycled water projects
  • Provide a basis for establishing basin objectives and best practices to maintain water quality
  • Be integral to the long-term successful use of recycled water in the Santa Rosa Plain while sustaining the groundwater quality
