Friends of Corte Madera Creek Watershed

They recognize that all activities within a watershed - human and natural - are interconnected, and that a wide range of issues must be addressed to meet their goals.

Water Reuse at RVSD
The District uses recycled water for sewer cleaning, dust control and other activities, using disinfected-23 MPN quality water from the Central Marin Sanitation Agency (CMSA) Truck Fill Station. Using recycled water for various operational activities is environmentally responsible and sustainable in the long term. The volume of recycled water use equals the volume of potable water conserved. Conserving potable water makes more available for human uses of water for health and safety, and environmental uses of water for fish and wildlife habitat in the Lagunitas Creek and Russian River watersheds. The following graph shows Water Reuse achieved by RVSD since it began the program in August 2019.
