Recycled Water Quality

The new Clovis Water Reuse Facility treats its wastewater to tertiary recycled water standards (also referred to as advanced water treatment) which is the highest level of treatment defined by the State; this level of treatment allows for unrestricted reuse in virtually all reclaimed water applications.

The City’s recycled water is monitored and tested daily to ensure that it consistently meets these high quality standards. This ensures water quality that far exceeds its intended use.  In thousands of applications throughout the U.S., there has never been a documented illness from recycled water use that has been installed per regulations.  Consistent inspections and strict regulations are also in place to ensure that the drinking and recycled water systems remain separate.
