Excerpt from Inventory of Waste Water Production and Waste Water Reclamation Practices in California, 1970-1971 The conservation of California's water resources requires the best use of available water supplies. Reclamation of water from wastes must be considered in any comprehensive evaluation of water management alternatives to meet future water needs. Waste water reclamation, the reuse of treated waste waters, represents an increasingly significant source of water supply which may be used in lieu of, or in exchange for, existing water supplies, while at the same time, reducing the amount of waste water to be discharged. Further, reclamation can provide a source of water, which otherwise would not be available, for use in enhancing environmental surroundings such as irrigated forest greenbelts, landscaping, or parks and artificial lakes. The Bulletin 68 series, which presents a statewide inventory of waste water production and reclamation practices, is published annually. It presents a compilation of readily available data and information on a statewide basis. These data and information are made available from files within the Department; from the files of the California Regional Water Quality Control Boards; from local and state agencies; from studies, investigations and technical literature; and from other public and private sources.
