Document Description
Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) is proposing to construct the Syphon Reservoir Improvement Project (proposed project). The Syphon Reservoir is an existing recycled water storage reservoir located within IRWD’s service area, northeast of Portola Parkway between Bee Canyon Access Road and State Route 133 (SR-133) in the County of Orange. The proposed project would allow IRWD to increase the storage capacity of the existing Syphon Reservoir to help IRWD become more self-sufficient by reducing its dependence on costly and less reliable imported water during summer months, and support the increased use of recycled water for public landscaping, agricultural, business and industrial uses in IRWD’s service area. Increased use of recycled water for these non-drinking water purposes would make more drinking water available to the region to better withstand future water shortages.
