Florida Water Reuse Trail

Individuals, utilities, and organizations are invited to nominate outstanding water reuse projects for inclusion on the Florida Water Reuse Trail. Selection will be competitive using criteria contained in the application package. Mark McNeal (ASRus) <mmcneal@asrus.net> chairs the Water Reuse Trail Committee.
