Monterey
Peninsula Groundwater Replenishment Project
Ensuring a Diverse Water Supply
The Monterey
Regional Water Pollution Control Agency is very supportive
of the Regional Project concept, in particular, projects
that involve recycling of resources such as the Regional
Urban Water Augmentation Project and the Groundwater Replenishment
Project (GWR). The GWR component offers enormous benefits
to our region and Cal-Am Water Company’s rate payers. The
GWR is compatible with the overall Regional Project and,
in fact, will actually enhance it. The GWR Project will not
delay Regional Project implementation.
A Smart Addition
to the DEIR Regional Project Alternative
The GWR Project is
compatible with the overall Regional Project and will actually
enhance it. Monterey Peninsula
needs diverse sources of water
that provide our communities with a more secure future for
residents and businesses.
The Monterey Peninsula Groundwater Replenishment Project
will:
- Create a reliable, publicly owned, safe water supply
for Monterey Peninsula.
- By implementing GWR, the other, more energy-intensive,
options listed in the DEIR Regional Project could be smart-sized,
thus enhancing the overall environmental benefits.
- Diversify the Regional Project alternative for a more
secure water supply.
- Be online sooner and use far less energy than most other
water supply alternatives.
