Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7125393
The report describes procedures to assist local government agencies in assessing the cost-effectiveness of alternative wastewater reuse systems. The reclamation and reuse of municipal wastewater may often be a technically and economically feasible alternative to disposal of sewage treatment plant effluent. The report inventories existing wastewater reuse sites in the U.S., describes procedures to perform a cost-effectiveness analysis of municipal reuse, applies the procedures developed to two case study locations (Santa Barbara, California and Hampton Roads, Virginia). Also included is a bibliography of current information on the economics and practice of wastewater reuse. (GRA)
