Event
COTE-Irvine Ranch Water Recycling Plant Tour & Presentation
Established in 1961, IRWD provides drinking water, waste water collection and treatment to produce recycled water. IRWDs tertiary treatment of wastewater at its Michelson Water Recycling Plant (MWRP) results in an excellent quality of recycled water that is used for landscape and agricultural irrigation, and for industrial and commercial needs. IRWD's proactive long-term planning identified the need to expand MWRP in order to meet the projected 56 percent increased recycled water demands by the year 2025.
Planners estimate that, when the service area reaches "final build out" in approximately 2025, a recycled water capacity of 33 million per day will be required to meet demands. A master plan was prepared to ensure that the plant will meet these requirements. A second plant expansion is nearly complete and will increase the MWRP by an additional 10 mgd.
