Brief Background of CA Recycled Water Policy

  • Brief Background of CA Recycled Water Policy

  • Salt-Nutrient (S-N) Plan requirements

  • How we are working with the IRWM groups in our Region for S-N planning

  • Status of S-N Plans



Goal is to increase the use of recycled water while protecting water quality

  • Goal is to increase the use of recycled water while protecting water quality



Promote sustainable local water supply

  • Promote sustainable local water supply

  • Increase use by one million acre-feet per year by 2020 & at least two million acre-feet per year by 2030.

  • Priority funding for recycled water projects and storm water use projects



Provides shorter review and processing for permits

  • Provides shorter review and processing for permits

  • Provides uniform interpretation of statutes, regulations, and policies

  • Clarifies the roles of State Agencies



CECs – what and why?

  • CECs – what and why?

  • Advisory Panel, Report and Public Meetings Completed in 2010

  • CECs amendment to Recycled Water Policy in 2012

  • CECs in S-N Plans



Salts and Nutrients – what and why?

  • Salts and Nutrients – what and why?

  • Regional impacts, thus regional evaluation of groundwater and regional management plan

  • Locally driven, controlled and funded by water & wastewater entities, together with local salt/nutrient contributing stakeholders

  • Plans for all basin in the state by May 14, 2014 + 2 year extension



Size and Complexity of basin

  • Size and Complexity of basin

  • Source water quality

  • Storm water recharge

  • Hydrogeology

  • Aquifer water quality

  • Watershed scale activities and stressors

  • May include other constituents



Basin-wide monitoring plan for salts, nutrients and other constituents

  • Basin-wide monitoring plan for salts, nutrients and other constituents

  • Annual monitoring of CECs

  • Goals and objectives for water recycling and stormwater recharge/use

  • Source identification, assimilative capacity, loading estimates, fate and transport

  • Implementation measures to manage loading on a sustainable basis

  • Antidegradation analysis



Participation by Regional Board staff

  • Participation by Regional Board staff

  • Basin Plan amendment



Staff participation

  • Staff participation

  • Regional Board members agree on S-N plan scope/concept prior to its completion (e.g. presentation of workplan outline at Regional Board meeting)

  • Focus future Regional Board review on plan content & not on scope of effort







Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment (GAMA) to ID Priority Basins

  • Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment (GAMA) to ID Priority Basins

  • 12 in Lahontan Basin

  • North Lahontan (5) – Tahoe North/South/West; Martis/Truckee; Honey Lake

  • South Lahontan (7) – Owens, Indian Wells, Tehachapi, Antelope, Lower/Middle/Upper Mojave



Priority Groundwater Basins - Work with Integrated Regional Water Management (IRWM) groups

  • Lahontan Basins

  • Honey Lake

  • Tahoe Sierra

  • Tahoe North/South/West Martis/Truckee

  • Inyo Mono

  • Owens, Indian Wells



Lahontan Basins

  • Lahontan Basins

  • (Honey Lake)

  • DWR grant

  • Tahoe Sierra

  • (Tahoe N/S/W ;Martis/Truckee) DWR grant

  • Inyo Mono

  • (Owens, Indian Wells)

  • New Indian Wells Group



Will address in groups as appropriate

  • Will address in groups as appropriate

  • Reduce the burden on rural communities in the more remote parts of our Region while encouraging water recycling & protecting groundwater quality



  • No dedicated staff funding

  • How to implement plans

  • Few future funding sources

  • 300+ “non-priority” basins

  • Many DACs
