Florida
Water reuse was established as a state objective in 1989 and the state has since created a supportive regulatory environment. Florida has regulations that specify requirements of how reclaimed water is to be treated depending on the use or application of the water. Approximately 820 million gallons per day of reclaimed water are used for beneficial purposes each year, including golf course irrigation, residential irrigation, agricultural irrigation, groundwater recharge and indirect potable reuse, industrial uses, fire protection, andwetlands.
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection is moving forward with Phase II of rulemaking to ensure proper regulation for implementation of potable reuse programs in the state of Florida. The rules amended in Chapter 62-610 F.A.C.
Phase
II Reuse of Reclaimed Water and Land Application will address updates necessary to be consistent with recommendations of the Potable Reuse Commission’s 2020 report “Advancing Potable Reuse in Florida: Framework for the Implementation of Potable Reuse in Florida” as required by Florida’s Clean Waterways Act of 2020.

Pennsylvania
Water reuse has been and continues to be an important component of Pennsylvania’s water management toolbox. Industries have been reusing water within their facilities for decades to reduce operating costs. Many municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants discharge treated water to streams and lakes, or land apply reclaimed water for additional treatment prior to recharging a groundwater aquifer. In many of these cases, the reclaimed water becomes a portion of the source water for a potable drinking water supply. The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) developed a guidance manual in 2012 for implementing water reuse in an environmentally protective manner in accordance with DEP regulations. REGULATIONS AND POLICIES * DEQ, REUSE OF TREATED WASTEWATER GUIDANCE MANUAL:This

Recycled water has been used for irrigation in Delaware for decades. The Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control administers state regulations and permitting for the distribution of treated wastewater for irrigation.REGULATION
* SPRAY IRRIGATION SYSTEMS: Spray irrigation of reclaimed water is permitted through the Large Systems Branch and can be used for agricultural fields, golf course, forests, parks, roadway medians, and cemeteries.CLOSE
Colorado
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) has a reclaimed water program that is designed to promote water reuse in the state. The state’s Reclaimed Water Control Regulation was introduced in 2000. The regulation covers the use of reclaimed water for landscape and agricultural irrigation, fire protection, industrial, commercial, and urinal and toilet flushing. These uses correlate to three categories of water quality standards, additional filtration and disinfection treatment for specific uses, and treatment from localized treatment systems (“decentralized”). The state also runs grant programs, such as the Water Plan Grant fund established in 2018, to incentivize new water reuse projects. REGULATIONS AND POLICIES * REGULATION NO. 84 – RECLAIMED WATER CONTROL REGULATION: Regulation 84 includes rules for the reuse of water for irrigation, fire protection, industrial, commercial, and urinal and toiletflushing.
* WATER QUALITY RECLAIMED WATER (REUSE) PERMITS: CDPHE’s program page includes permit applications, policies and guidelines, and external resources.CLOSE
Arizona
Arizona has a long history of water reuse beginning in about 1926. As much as two-thirds of all treated wastewater generated in Arizona is reused for a variety purposes, including irrigation, environmental restoration, energy generation, and agriculture. Legislative authority for water reuse was granted to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) in 1999 and reclaimed water rules focus on protecting water quality and human health. ADEQ is currently revising Arizona’s rules governing the use of recycled water. The first installment of new rules, effective January 1, 2018, allow permitting for direct potable reuse. In the next installment of rulemaking, ADEQ intends to adopt more detailed DPR criteria. Arizona has no indirect potable reuse (IPR) regulations, but IPR can be done under separate ADEQ groundwater protection permitting regulations. Other than graywater use, there are no specific rules allowing onsite or decentralized water reuse in Arizona.REGULATIONS
* RECYCLED WATER RULEMAKING: Arizona Department of Environmental Quality is working on various recycled water regulations by consulting numerous stakeholders in the field. ADEQ also completed a triennial surface water quality review in 2019 in compliance with the Clean Water Act. * AAC TITLE 18, CHAPTER 9:Article 7
provides rules for the use of recycled water in Arizona. * AAC TITLE 18, CHAPTER 11:Article 3
provides water quality standards for recycled in Arizona.CLOSE
Alabama
Alabama has a history of water reuse citing back to 1975 with reclaimed water being reused primarily for irrigation. The state’s rules allow for Class A and Class B water, with different reuse applications applying to each. These regulations also explain how to apply for permits for reuse. Alabama’s Department of Environmental Management oversees the state’s regulation of water reuse.REGULATIONS
* RECLAIMED WATER REUSE PROGRAM, CHAPTER 335-6-20:These
regulations establish the procedures and requirements for pollution source permits for reclaimed water reuse facilities. Reclaimed water is defined as wastewater that has received treatment meeting the specific criteria and can be reused for beneficial irrigation of areas such as golf courses, residential and commercial landscaping, parks, athletic fields, roadway medians and landscape impoundments.CLOSE
Nevada
In Nevada, the Division of Environmental Protection has promulgated rules governing water recycling for both potable and non-potable uses. Nevada DEP notes that reclaimed water can be treated to meet disinfection and water quality standards for a range of applications. There are six categories of reclaimed water in the state, based upon water quality. These include indirect potable reuse, various forms of irrigation, firefighting, and cooling, among other applications.REGULATION
* CHAPTER 445 – WATER CONTROLS:These regulations
define the uses of reclaimed water and determine water quality standards for different allowed uses.CLOSE
Texas
Texas has the third highest reclaimed water flows in the country behind California and Florida. Water reuse goals are published under the State Water Plan, which is
updated every five years to provide a new 50 year projection. Texas estimates that water reuse will account for 15 percent of the water supply in the coming decades. The first guidelines for water reuse were passed in 1997 and updated in 2009. There are two categories of non-potable reclaimed water (Type I and Type II) based on whether the water is appropriate for public contact or not. The Texas Administrative Code also includes regulations for the use of graywater and some alternative sources in onsite or decentralized reuse systems. There are no specific water quality standards for potable reuse and therefore these projects are approved on a case by case basis. POLICIES AND REGULATIONS * TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD, WATER REUSE:The Texas
Water Development Board has information on recent research projects and resource related to both potable and non-potable reuse. * WATER USE SURVEY REQUIREMENT (TEXAS WATER CODE § 16.012):The Texas
Water Development Board annually collects information about the use of water, including reuse. * 30 TEXAS ADMINISTRATIVE CODE CHAPTER 210- USE OF RECLAIMED WATER: This regulation outlines general provisions for reclaimed water and provides rules for water quality and use. * 30 TEXAS ADMINISTRATIVE CODE CHAPTER 321, SUBCHAPTER P: This Chapter of Texas Administrative Code provides authorization procedures, general design criteria, and operational requirements for reclaimed water production facilities. * 30 TEXAS ADMINISTRATIVE CODE CHAPTER 321, GRAYWATER AND ONSITESYSTEMS:
This Chapter provides rules for graywater and alternative onsitewater.
* §5.102:
This Chapter
of the Texas Administrative Code defines the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) and the rules that guide them. TWDB policy pertains to both potable and non-potable reuse.* §26.011:
This
Chapter of Texas Administrative Code defines the administrative provisions of the Texas Water Development Board in regards to WaterQuality Control.
