6.1.E. - Page 12 <br /> Summary of Recycled Water Survey Responses <br /> Existing Recycled Water <br /> Programs <br /> Daly City/North San Mateo <br /> County Sanitation District The North San Mateo County Sanitation District, a <br /> subsidiary district of Daly City, began delivering <br /> recycled water to commercial customers in August <br /> 2004. The distribution system consists of 4.85 miles of <br /> distribution pipeline, 2 pump stations, and 1.4 million <br /> gallons of storage. The geographic area served is <br /> Northern San Mateo County and the Southwest portion <br /> of the City/County of San Francisco through contractual <br /> agreements with its golf clubs. This represents 4.2% of <br /> the Sanitation District's geographic area. At maximum <br /> production, 41% of the Sanitation District's sewage <br /> effluent becomes recycled water. Median landscape and <br /> playing field irrigation, sewer main flushing, and turf <br /> irrigation at the Olympic, San Francisco, Lake Merced, <br /> and Harding Park Golf Clubs are the primary uses for <br /> the recycled water. Actual usage billed in hundred cubic <br /> feet units (748 gallons) determines the charges for <br /> recycled water. There are plans to conduct <br /> supplementary tests in the winter/spring 2012-2013 to <br /> determine if Colma cemeteries, Park Merced, and San <br /> Francisco State University can receive recycled water. <br /> Redwood City In 2002, Redwood City began planning for the <br /> development of a citywide recycled water system to <br /> address the very real possibility of severe water <br /> shortages in the coming years. The city had been <br /> exceeding its Hetch Hetchy water allotment and was <br /> searching for a way to use less water. In 2003, the City <br /> formed a Community Task Force on Recycled Water to <br /> build community support for the project. Initial <br /> opposition to the project centered on the safety of <br /> children at playgrounds and parks. Physical <br /> construction of the recycled water project began in <br /> 2005. Phase I of the project became operational in 2010. <br /> The distribution system consists of 15+ miles of <br /> distribution pipeline, 1 pump station, and 4.36 million <br /> gallons of storage. The geographic area served includes <br /> Redwood Shores and Seaport. This represents 50% of <br /> the geographic area of Redwood City. Currently, <br /> Redwood City uses 6% of its sewage effluent as <br /> 8 <br />
