NBWRA Phase 2 Scoping Study Summary Report now available
The North Bay Water Reuse Authority’s (NBWRA) Phase 2 Scoping Studies have been conducted to assist the Member Agencies in determining whether to proceed with feasibility-level engineering analysis, environmental documentation, and financial analysis for Phase 2 of the North Bay Water Reuse Program (NBWRP or Program). The NBWRA initiated Phase 2 Scoping Studies to explore, at a conceptual level, how to build on the NBWRP’s Phase 1 success to further develop additional water supplies, therefore expanding water supply and management opportunities in the region. Although the Scoping Studies were conducted by the NBWRA, the process was developed with input and financial assistance from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) Mid-Pacific Region.

Bureau of Reclamation Releases "WaterSMART: A Three-Year Progress Report"
The Federal Bureau of Reclamation, which awarded $3.8 million to two North Bay projects that will recycle up to 2,700 acre feet of water per year for beneficial uses in agriculture, irrigation and habitat restoration, has released a three-year progress report on its WaterSMART program.
Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) / Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
The project has undergone preliminary design and the environmental process is nearly complete. The Final EIR/EIS for the North Bay Water Recycling Program has been reviewed and certified by all the member agencies and has completed the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review process. The program can now move forward with the Phase I local projects.
Final engineering design will start shortly and construction of the first projects are expected to begin in 2011.
