Regional Approach to Maximize Reuse Opportunities in North San Diego County Mitch Dion Rincon del Diablo Municipal Water District October 19, 2011 ACWA Region 8, 9, 10
Overview of Presentation • Participating Agencies • Goals of the Project • Available Recycled Water Supplies • Potential Recycled Water Demands • Long-Term (2030) Regional Options • Short-Term (2020) Projects • Recommendations/Next Steps
Understanding San Diego Water Cheap and Easy are all Sold Out Diversification Is In
Study Area / Location Map Oceanside Vista Carlsbad San Marcos Escondido Encinitas Solano Beach San Diego County
Project Goals • Investigate opportunities for expanded use of Recycled Water • Involve multiple agencies from North County • Document effort in Facility Plan Report to use for pursuit of local, State, and Federal funding opportunities
Scope of Planning Study • Compare supplies with projected demands • Consider regulatory requirements • Develop regional concepts to expand use of RW • Utilize existing systems • Seasonal Storage • Groundwater IPR • Reservoir Augmentation IPR • Prepare Recycled Water Facility Plan • Long-Term (2030) • Short-Term (2020)
Regulatory Considerations Hydrologic Units/Subunits TDS Limits
Current Recycled Water Setting • Available Recycled Water Supplies • Potential Non-Potable Water Demands • Existing Recycled Water Systems • Planned Recycled Water Systems
Build on Current Efforts Existing Recycled Water Systems
Build on Current Efforts Planned Recycled Water Systems
Potential Recycled Water Demand * Includes Indirect Potable Reuse demand
Regional Long Term (2030) Options • Option A: Decentralized Supply • Use satellite WPRs • Option B: Centralized Supply • Utilize central/larger WWTP/WPRs • Option C: Seasonal Storage • 7 potential sites identified • Option D: Indirect Potable Reuse (IPR) • Groundwater • Surface Water Augmentation
Decentralized versus Centralized - Selection Criteria • Maximize Reuse • System Reliability • Adaptability • Institutional Complexity • Proximity of Supplies and Demands
Decentralized versus Centralized - Evaluation Results Option A: Decentralized Preferred o
Option C - Seasonal Storage Figure 4-5Seasonal Non-Potable Recycled Water Demand Balanced with Wastewater Supply

Recommendations • Additional study on seasonal storage sites • Additional study on IPR sites • Agencies to update individual planning for consistency with regional plan • Hydraulic analysis of regional system • Develop or refine existing inter-agency agreements • Consider programmatic type environmental document for regional project
Current Status • Approved for $1.5 million to be included in San Diego regional grant application to State • Agencies began Federal lobbying funding efforts • Currently updating Regional Approach to include Camp Pendleton
