San Francisco Zoo Recycled Water Project

Overview

On the west side of San Francisco, we are aiming to save up to 2 million gallons per day (mgd) on average of drinking water that is currently used for non-drinking purposes such as irrigation and lake fill. Recycled water will be delivered for these uses through a system of pipelines, pump stations, storage tanks and reservoirs. This project will bring recycled water from the recycled water treatment facility to the San Francisco Zoo for landscape irrigation.
