Present Land Use
The primary land uses are developed residential, commercial, and industrial within the two sanitation districts, as well as the existing sanitation facilities including treatment, storage, and recycled water irrigation facilities.
Document Description
The project comprises an agreement (Agreement) that will allow the ability to transfer recycled water and partially treated wastewater between the Airport/Larkfield/Wikiup Sanitation Zone (ALWSZ) and the Town of Windsor treatment, storage, and irrigation facilities. The Agreement will allow for the coordinated operation of these systems for the purposes of increasing operating efficiencies, reducing operational costs, increasing beneficial use of recycled water, and decreasing discharges of recycled water to Mark West Creek, for an initial term of five years. The project may include the modification or installation of valves to existing wastewater and recycled water pipelines that will not result in an expansion of use. All project modifications will be conducted in existing roadways and within the footprint of the sanitation districts’ existing facilities.
