Reclaimed Water
Reclaim water is domestic wastewater that has been extensively treated, so that it can be safely used for the irrigation of commercial, residential, or golf courses lawns. The City’s reclaimed water distribution system provides “an alternative water source” for irrigation and to decrease the potable water demand.
The City’s reclaimed water system consists of approximately:
- 72 miles of reclaimed water mains (2" to 24" in diameter)
- 3400 reclaimed water meters and service lines

If your reclaimed water pressure seems low, the problem could be the time of day when you water the lawn. If you're watering between the peak hours of 1 AM to 6 AM, you may experience low reclaimed water pressure. Adjusting the watering time to a non-peak hour may solve the problem.

Reclaimed water is domestic wastewater which as been treated and disinfected to a high degree that it can be safely used to irrigate golf courses, commercial and residential lawns.
Reclaimed water can never be interconnected to any other water system; to do so is a violation of Federal, State, and local laws/regulations. Although it has been filtered and solids removed, it is not entirely free of contaminants. Interconnecting reclaimed water to another water system can be hazardous to your health and to the city's water distribution system.
