Tuscon Water Reclamation

Reclaimed Water
Tucson Water has been delivering reclaimed water to customers for more than 20 years. We deliver reclaimed water to about 900 sites, including: 14 golf courses; 35 parks; 47 schools (the University of Arizona and Pima Community College included); and more than 700 single family homes. Our reclaimed water production facilities at Roger Road near I-10 have been filtering and disinfecting treated wastewater for 23 years.

Using reclaimed water for irrigation saves groundwater for drinking. In 2005, reclaimed customers saved 4.2 billion gallons of drinking water; enough for 39,000 families for a year.
