California Section About Us

The WateReuse Association, California Section's mission is

"To promote responsible stewardship of California's water resources by maximizing the safe, practical and beneficial use of recycled water and by supporting the efforts of the of WateReuse Association."

At no time in our history has the use of recycled water been more important than it is today, especially while the Western United States is experiencing the worst drought in 500 years. Outreach is a key aspect of our mission and is evidenced in several areas at both the state and local levels. WateReuse is actively engaged in working with our appointed and elected officials to effect both regulations and legislation that will move recycled water projects forward in a streamlined manner. In addition to the legislative and regulatory outreach, WateReuse provides our membership with expert testimony to support local projects that are consistent with our mission. There is a depth and breadth of experience within the organization to assist new projects and/or advance existing and challenging projects.
