Tucsons Treated Wastewater: A Lost Opportunity for Water Conservation and Revenue

Tucsons treated wastewater, flowing into the Santa Cruz River, is lost to Pima County, denying local needs and potential revenue from long-term storage credits. This lost effluent, potentially millions in credits, is a significant loss amidst growing water shortages. A fifteen million dollar Pima County flood control project aims to install grade-control structures for better aquifer seepage and in-county retention, while expanded recharge basins could capture more. Officials envision this as part of a broader plan to retain every drop for the regions future.
