The Palmdale Water District received a $1,429,340 Project Grant award from the Bureau of Reclamation's Water Recycling and Desalination Construction Programs (CFDA 15.504) on May 3, 2024. The funding will support the Palmdale Water District's planning efforts for its Pure Water Antelope Valley project, which aims to utilize 5,325 acre-feet per year of recycled water from the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts' Palmdale Water Reclamation Plant to augment the district's potable water supplies. The project planning activities to be conducted under this grant include site surveying, geotechnical studies, preliminary planning and design, environmental studies, regulatory compliance, and permitting. These efforts will advance the development of this transformative water recycling initiative, which will help resolve near-term water supply shortages, alleviate groundwater overdraft, and improve the climate resilience of the district's disadvantaged and underserved service area.
