California's water is a critical resource to human health, economic vitality, and the environmental quality of our state. As the drought worsens, we hope to inspire our community to be water wise and conserve water.
The District minimizes water usage everyday by recycling water for irrigation at the Omni La Costa Resort and Spa’s golf course. A portion of the treated wastewater at Encina Water Pollution Control Facility is pumped back to the District, where it is further treated to a level that is safe for recycling before it is sent to the golf course. We produce approximately 80-100 million gallons of recycled water per year at our Gafner recycled water plant, which helps conserve our drinking water supply.
