BACKGROUND The City Council has endorsed moving toward the goal of creating a viable local recycled water distribution system that takes advantage of recycled water available through the City of Livermore, DERWA, and the DSRSD. Because recycled water is accessible at the DSRSD waste water treatment plant directly across from Val Vista Park, staff has identified this park as a good candidate for the use of recycled water that will both take advantage of the availability of the nearby recycled water source and help the City its long term water conservation goals. By installing a relatively short section of pipeline, recycled water was brought across the bridge at the Alamo Canal to the park where it was connected to the park's water infrastructure. As a result of this project, the City will be able to supply recycled water into the park under the DSRSD Recycled Water permit until the City attains its own permit. As part of the planning for this project, staff determined that significant efficiencies could be realized by incorporating it into the DSRSD plant improvement project. Further, as mentioned above, this effort allows the City to provide the park with recycled water under DSRSD Recycled Water Permit which will accelerate the City's recycled water effort. Overall, staff anticipates that this project will replace approximately 32,000,000 gallons of potable water annually with recycled water. The original project estimate for the work was $130,000 and the final cost of $118,698 is $11,302 under this estimate. Staff has approved the completed work and it meets all permitting requirements.
