Desert Water's vital recycling program protects precious drinking water by using reclaimed water on golf courses, parks and green belts.

Millions of gallons of recycled water have been safely used since Desert Water built it's reclamation plant in 1988. The plant was designed with excess capacity to meet the service area's growing water needs. New golf courses continue to come on line while existing parks and golf courses are converting to recycled water as accessibility becomes available.

The process saves energy since recycled water uses only a quarter of the energy required to pump groundwater from deep wells. Thanks to Desert Water's careful quality management, recycling water inhibits nitrates from reaching our precious aquifers.
