Description
A statewide strategy is being reviewed for inclusion in the South Platte Basin Implementation Plan as part of the Colorado Water Plan Update. Longmont continues to re-use the majority of its legally available greywater through the Wastewater Treatment Plant. It is not currently recommended that a greywater reuse program be set up in Longmont. Longmont will continue to monitor Boulder County Health as they develop a model greywater program to determine if this might be a possibility for Longmont in the future.
