Purple Fire Hydrants?
Rincon continues to lead the region in the use of Recycled Water. Purple fire hydrants will be installed in the ERTC (near the new Hospital). Using recycled water to fight fires just makes good sense. As new commercial projects are built in the ERTC, the fire suppression systems and the hydrants around the projects will use recycled water. Using recycled water where ever possible saves our potable water to use in places we need it. As new projects are built, we continue to make them more efficient and expand the use of recycled water. If you are interested in seeing a purple fire hydrant, we have one on display in our lobby at 1920 N. Iris Lane or just wait, we may have a purple fire hydrant on a street corner near you soon.
Remember, purple is the color for recycled water pipes, it is not sewer water. Recycled water is highly treated and disinfected; while it is not for drinking, incidental contact with your skin is not harmful. And like all water in Southern California, it is too important of a resource to waste. Visit us or check-out the links on our site to learn more about Recycled Water innovations.

North San Diego County Regional Recycled Water Project
This study is intended to assist the North San Diego County water and wastewater agencies in identifying the benefits of regionalization of existing and planned recycled water systems to further maximize the use of recycled water. Regionalization of facilities will allow recycled water to play an even more significant role in meeting the future water needs in the north San Diego County area. In 1998, four agencies, Olivenhain MWD, Carlsbad MWD, San Elijo JPA and the Leucadia Wastewater District received USBR Title XVI grant funds for the construction of various recycled water facilities within each of the north county agencies. The facilities that were included in that original regional effort have been constructed and are in use. As a result of these previous successes, a larger group consisting of eleven North County Agencies (Group) has been formed to investigate expanded use of recycled water within north San Diego County. The intent of this study is to identify new local and regional recycled water projects that will provide additional recycled water supplies to the local water agencies beyond what they could utilize individually.
Rincon and the partner agencies were just awarded $1.5 million dollars from the State to continue the work on this project.
Road Work at the District Office
