The purpose of the Eastside Road Storage Project is to provide additional recycled water storage to meet current and future operational requirements of the Town’s recycled water system. Windsor’s wastewater is highly treated to a tertiary level, including ultraviolet disinfection, and it meets California Title 22 standards. New storage facilities are needed to balance seasonal irrigation demands and limitations on seasonal releases of recycled water to Mark West Creek.
