directly into the Sewer, Storm Drains,, onto the hardscape

and landscape

• It creates erosion, damage to buildings, and Hardscape, runoff

to storm drain system, and undesirable plant growth

used for irrigation and other outdoor purposes

solutions

• Pilot feasibility project in reuben h. fleet science center and casa

de balboa.

• Reclaim underutilized water of the following types:

• rainwater

• Air conditioning condensate

• Cooling tower condensate

• Reverse osmosis system by-product

• Substitute potable water with Reclaimed water in irrigation and

other outdoor purposes

Potential outcomes

• Use of potable water for irrigation will drastically decrease

• Decrease Erosion and damage to buildings, hardscape, and

plants, minimizing high maintenance costs

• Achieve Significant money savings on potable water

• Possible application to other park buildings and surrounding

landscapes
