0 <br /> STATE OF CALIFORNIA-HEALTH AND H M N BERVIQES AGENCY C a DAMS. GOVERNOR <br /> DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES <br /> DIVISION OF DRINKING WATER AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT <br /> DRINKING WATER PROGRAM <br /> RECYCLED WATER UNIT <br /> GUIDELINES FOR THE <br /> PREPARATION OF AN ENGINEERING REPORT <br /> FOR THE PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION AND USE OF RECYCLED WATER <br /> March 2001 <br /> (Replaces September 1997 Version) <br /> 1.0 INTRODUCTION <br /> The current State of California Water Recycling Criteria (adopted <br /> in December 2000) require the submission of an engineering report <br /> to the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and <br /> the Department of Health Services (DHS) before recycled water <br /> projects are implemented. These reports must also be amended prior <br /> to any modification to existing projects. The purpose of an <br /> engineering report is to describe the manner by which a project <br /> will comply with the Water Recycling Criteria. The Water Recycling <br /> Criteria are contained in Sections 60301 through 60355, inclusive, <br /> of the California Code of Regulations, Title 22 . The Criteria <br /> prescribe: <br /> * Recycled water quality and wastewater treatment requirements <br /> for the various types of allowed uses, <br /> * Use area requirements pertaining to the actual location of use <br /> of the recycled water (including dual plumbed facilities) , and <br /> * Reliability features required in the treatment facilities to <br /> ensure safe performance. <br /> Section 60323 of the Water Recycling Criteria specifies that the <br /> engineering report be prepared by a properly qualified engineer, <br /> registered in California and experienced in the field of wastewater <br /> treatment . <br /> Recycled water projects vary in complexity. Therefore, reports <br /> will vary in content, and the detail presented will depend on the <br /> scope of the proposed project and the number and nature of the <br /> agencies involved in the production, distribution, and use of the <br /> recycled water. The report should contain sufficient information <br />
