No Litter in Toilet

Sewer Maintenance staff is reporting a noticeable increase in non-flushables, paper towels, and plastic in the sewer system this week.  This is a friendly reminder that paper towels, wet wipes, baby wipes, cleaning wipes, cosmetic wipes, feminine hygiene products, and diapers should NEVER go in the toilet.  If it’s not human waste or toilet paper please don’t flush it!  Let’s keep our infrastructure working well!!

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO

State and federal laws require all urbanized communities to collect and treat their domestic and industrial wastes. Proper treatment and disposal of sewage is essential to protect public health and prevent pollution of the environment.

WATER RECYCLING

THE DISTRICT HAS BEEN PRODUCING AND DISTRIBUTING RECYCLED WATER SINCE 1974

Nearly 400 million gallons of treated wastewater is reused each year for non-edible crop irrigation and dust control.

There are 2 types of recycled water listed in Title 22 of the California code of regulations:  RESTRICTED USE and UNRESTRICTED USE.  The District currently produces RESTRICTED USE Secondary 23 Recycled water, which can be used for irrigation of non-food crops, as well as freeway landscaping and pasture.   RESTRICTED USE Recycled Water can only be used at times and locations where public access is limited.

The District is unable to distribute recycled water to the general public at this time, because our treatment facility is not designed to meet the water quality standards for unrestricted public use.

Here at the District, we continue to investigate and implement approaches that conserve and protect our precious water resources.  Treated wastewater is used to irrigate vegetation on the treatment plant site and the treated water we deliver to the Suisun Marsh protects and enhances the natural environment.

PUBLIC INFORMATION

All programs are free of charge and available to the communities we serve.
