Recycled Water On-site Retrofit Program
Incentives of up to $195 per acre-foot for 10 years of estimated water use.
Metropolitan’s On-site Retrofit Program provides financial incentives directly to public or private properties for costs associated with recycled water conversion from imported water irrigation or industrial systems. The program is open to public or private properties with at least 1 acre-foot per year of imported water use or a minimum of 15,000 square-feet of irrigated area, and with access to recycled water within Metropolitan’s service area.
Incentives can help cover the costs of project design, permitting, construction costs associated with the retrofit, connection fees and required recycled water signage.
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is a consortium of 26 cities and water districts that provides drinking water to nearly 19 million people in parts of Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties.
The On-site Retrofit Program will provide financial incentives to commercial, industrial and institutional property owners, including Homeowner Associations, who convert imported water irrigation or industrial water systems to recycled water use. This program provides incentives of $195 per acre-foot for ten years of estimated water use, up to actual retrofit costs.
This Program works on a first come, first served basis. Applications will be accepted until funding for this Program is exhausted, whichever is earlier. Applications received after program funding is exhausted will be placed on a waiting list for possible funding only if additional funds become available for the program.
