Department of Ecology will hold a Reclaimed Water Workshop in Lacey tomorrow:

May 26, 2010 1:00 p.m.
Department of Ecology
300 Desmond Drive – Lacey
Room ROA-34

The Department of Ecology (Ecology) proposes to adopt rules for reclaimed water use by December 2010.

The goal is to develop a Reclaimed Water Program encouraging the use of reclaimed water; assure the
health and safety of Washington citizens; protect the environment; and allow us to use our precious water resources wisely.
The Department of Health will participate with Ecology at the workshops.

At the May 11th Yelm City Council meeting, Mayor Pro-tem Isom reported he attended a presentation of the LOTT Alliance and he stated:
“The Department of Ecology is messing with the regulations for reclaimed water & there are some great concerns about what the outcome is going to be.”

The Department of Ecology released the Draft of Reclaimed Water Rules on May 12, 2010.
