fornia, presently treat approximately 175,000,000 gallons per

facilities that would allow the utilization of 15 million gallons
per day of treated wastewater from the County Sanitation Districts

tion purposes; and

purposes has greatly increased due to technology and the rising
costs of other water; and
The Orange County Water District has submitted a request for
grant monies from the State of California and the Federal Govern-
ment for purposes of conducting a feasibility study to develop a
wastewater treatment and distribution system for irrigation of
parks and greenbelt areas .
