Recycled Water

EBMUD's mission is to reliably provide water of the highest possible quality to its 1.3 million East Bay customers. EBMUD's primary source, the Mokelumne River, serves EBMUD in wet and normal years, but supplies are limited in dry years. EBMUD uses water recycling as one way to help reduce the need for additional potable water supplies and to diminish the severity of water rationing during droughts.
