Last week, WateReuse member Anne Arundel County, Maryland awarded a $2.4 million contract to Arcadis to lead a Managed Aquifer Recharge Pilot project. Completion of the pilot is expected in 2028, and will include assessment of advanced, non-membrane treatment processes at an existing reclamation plant for potential full-scale implementation. Arcadis aims to incorporate advanced digital technologies including digital process twins, groundwater modeling, and interactive data dashboards to execute the project. “This project addresses critical water challenges with the potential to scale and adapt to other communities. Collaborating with Anne Arundel County and utilizing our digital expertise, our goal is to set a benchmark for sustainable water reuse and aquifer management,” said Moalie Jose, Account Leader at Arcadis. WateReuse members advocated last year for the passage of legislation in the Maryland State Senate which allowed the Maryland Department of the Environment to issue a groundwater recharge permit for the project.
