Next phase of ‘Harvest Water’ project starts in Sacramento County
… The road work happening is all part of the Harvest Water pipeline construction project, which according to planners, will ultimately result in California’s largest agricultural water recycling project. The goal with Harvest Water is to provide recycled water instead of groundwater for use on agricultural lands and existing habitats across southern Sacramento County. To do that, lots of pipe work needs to be put in. Roughly 42 miles of new pipeline, a new pumping station and service connections to control water delivery to the agricultural customers will be installed when the project is scheduled for completion in 2026. The system is expected to be operational sometime in 2027.
