==Groundwater Supply==<br />
One of thekey functions of this organization is to ensure that potable water can be given to consumers without the overuse of [[groundwater]] resources. The history of this within the organization started when the in the mid-1970s when excessive [[groundwater]] pumping for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying [[aquifer]], exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion. The continued encroachment of saltwater ([[Salinas Valley Seawater Intrusion]]) into the [[Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin]] began to pose a serious threat to the regions multi-billion dollar agricultural industry, as well as limiting the drinking water supply for the [[City of Salinas]]. Community leaders began discussing possible solutions to address the growing concerns of saltwater intrusion, eventually deciding on the use of recycled wastewater to supplement crop irrigation, reducing the need to deplete groundwater reserves. After an extensive 11-year study the Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture final report was released on April 3rd, 1987. <ref name = "Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture"> [http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf Monterey One Water, 1987.Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture. http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf] </ref> This document outline the feasibility of using reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation and address concerns about potential heath impacts associated with consuming crops grown with recycled water.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the [[Clean Water Act]], Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating [[groundwater]] supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying [[aquifer]], exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion.

<br />
In 1983, Monterey One Water was ready to implement its plan of an unified sanitation district.

<br />
==Current Responsibilities==<br />
<br />
As of 2018, Monterey One Water is responsible for operating and maintaining 25 pump stations, 35 pressure-vacuum stations, and approximately 750 miles of pipeline and the [[Regional Treatment Plant]] treats and distributes 18.5 MGD for agricultural and domestic use. <ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> [http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

<hr />
<div>This page gives an overview of the Salinas River Diversion Facility. <br />
<br />
==Summary==<br />
The [http://www.mcwra.co.monterey.ca.us/salinas_river_diversion_fac/salinas_river_diversion_fac.php Salinas River Diversion Facility (SRDF)] is part of the [[Salinas Valley Water Project (SVWP)]] and was created to help mitigate [[Salinas Valley Seawater Intrusion|seawater intrusion]] in the Salinas Valley. The facility consists of a rubber dam located 5 miles upstream from the mouth of the [[Salinas River]]. The dam is designed to retain water released from the [[Nacimiento and San Antonio Reservoirs]] in a 100 acre foot (AC-FT) detention pond. The intended use for this water is to help recharge the [[Salinas Valley Aquifer]] and to be used in irrigation. When the dam is activated, it creates a 100 acre-foot detention pond with facilities designed to extract 23 million gallons of water per day (GPD) for use in irrigation (34.5 Cubic Feet per Second). The diverted water is mixed with recycled waste-water to be used on crops during high irrigation periods.<ref name="Design and Construction of the Diversion Facility"> [http://ussdams.com/proceedings/2010Proc/577-592.pdf Design and Construction of the Diversion Facility] </ref><br />
<br />
==Planning, Construction, and Costs==<br />
The SVWP and the SRDF were developed to accomplish two primary goals: Halting [[seawater intrusion]] and Provide a flexible fresh water supply adequate for current and future (2030) needs.<ref name="SVWP Flow Monitoring"> [http://www.mcwra.co.monterey.ca.us/flow_monitoring/flow_monitoring.php SVWP Flow Monitoring] </ref>Construction for the dam finished in May of 2010. The potential liquefaction of substrate during earthquakes required costly foundation considerations. <br />
<br />
'''Costs'''<br />
*The initial cost of the facility was $14 million out of the $33 million [[Salinas Valley Water Project (SVWP)|Salinas Valley Water Project]] budget. <br />
*The other funds were in part spent to upgrade the Nacimiento spillway to be able to increase available discharge. <ref name="Salinas River rubber dam repair costs soar"> [http://www.montereyherald.com/20120217/salinas-river-rubber-dam-repair-costs-soar Salinas River rubber dam repair costs soar]</ref><br />
<br />
==Timeline of Major Events==<br />
'''2010'''<br />
In May of 2010 construction was completed and the project was activated<br />
<br />
'''2011'''<br />
In June of 2011, a high flow event caused erosion around the dam, requiring repairs estimated at $1.8 million.<br />
<br />
'''2012''' <br />
Repairs were completed in 2012, with most of the costs being charged by project contractors led by the Don Chapin Company. <ref name="Salinas River rubber dam repair costs soar"> [http://www.montereyherald.com/20120217/salinas-river-rubber-dam-repair-costs-soar Salinas River rubber dam repair costs soar]</ref><br />
<br />
'''2014'''<br />
During 2014, the [[Monterey County Water Resources Agency]] (MCWRA) suspended all water diversions from the SRDF due to low water storage in the Nacimiento and San Antonio Reservoirs as a result of ongoing drought conditions <ref name="2014 Greater Monterey County IRWM Drought Grant Proposal - Drought Impacts"> [http://www.water.ca.gov/irwm/grants/docs/Archives/Prop84/Submitted_Applications/P84_2014Drought/City%20of%20Salinas%20%28201498760019%29/Attachment%202%20-%20Att2_DG_Impact_1of1.pdf 2014 Greater Monterey County IRWM Drought Grant Proposal - Drought Impacts]</ref>. The reserviors' diversions are maintained through operational rule curves. The established operating rules developed to ensure diversions from storage meet the total number of conservation release days. <ref name="Reservoir Operational Criteria"> [http://www.mcwra.co.monterey.ca.us/interlake_tunnel/documents/Special%20BOD%20Mtg%20Interlake%20Tunnel%20Project%20Workshop%20111914.pdf Reservoir Operational Criteria]</ref><br />
<br />
==Water Use==<br />
The SRDF is operated by the MCWRA. <ref name="MCWRA Salinas River Diversion Facility (SRDF)"> [http://www.mcwra.co.monterey.ca.us/salinas_river_diversion_fac/salinas_river_diversion_fac.php MCWRA Salinas River Diversion Facility (SRDF)]</ref> When the rubber dam is in operation, water is diverted from the created reservoir to [[Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency]] (MRWPCA)'s [[Regional Treatment Plant]] (RTP). There, diverted river water is treated and mixed with recycled water from the [[Salinas Valley Reclamation Plant]] (SVRP). The reclaimed and diverted water is then distributed to growers through the [[Castroville Seawater Intrusion Project (CSIP)]]. <ref name="Overview of the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA)"> [http://www.mrwpca.org/lhmp/03_lhmp_2014_intro.pdf Overview of the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA)] </ref><br />
<br />
==Special Status Species==<br />
The [[Salinas River]] is designated as critical habitat for the threatened [[Steelhead|steelhead trout]]. To mitigate impacts the rubber dam on the steelhead, a fish ladder was incorporated into the rubber dam to bring it in line with [[Steelhead Management in the Salinas Watershed|local steelhead recovery plans]].<br />

==Wastewater Treatment==<br />
<br />
In 1983, Monterey One Water was ready to implement its plan of an unified sanitation district. This process included the construction of a wastewater conveyance system that utilized neighboring treatment plant stations to distribute wastewater to one centralized facility.<ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> [http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html Monterey One Water, 2017. Wastewater Conveyance. http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html] </ref> These treatment plants were decommissioned in February, 1990, after the new 29.6 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) [[Regional Treatment Plant]] began operation.<br />
<br />
==Current Responsibilities==<br />
<br />
As of 2018, Monterey One Water is responsible for operating and maintaining 25 pump stations, 35 pressure-vacuum stations, and approximately 750 miles of pipeline and the [[Regional Treatment Plant]] treats and distributes 18.5 MGD for agricultural and domestic use. <ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> [http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

== Summary ==<br />
<br />
Formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), Monterey One Water was established in 1972 to administer water rationing in response to severe drought conditions <ref>[http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_tertiary_treatment.html Monterey One Water, 2017. Recycling Water. http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_tertiary_treatment.html]</ref>. MRWPCA was formed under a Joint Powers Authority agreement between the [[City of Monterey]], the [[City of Pacific Grove]] and the [[Seaside County Sanitation District]] as a peninsula-wide effort to resolve area’s water issues. <ref name = "NOPE">[https://www.deepwaterdesal.com/joint-powers-authority.htm Deep Water Desal, 2017. Joint Powers Authority About. https://www.deepwaterdesal.com/joint-powers-authority.htm]</ref> MRWPCA operates the [[Regional Treatment Plant]], the [[Salinas River Diversion Facility]], the [[Castroville Seawater Intrusion Project]], sewage collection pipelines, and 25 wastewater pump stations <ref name = "NOPE">[https://www.deepwaterdesal.com/joint-powers-authority.htm Deep Water Desal, 2017.

==Formation==<br />
<br />
Monterey One Water<ref name = "Monterey One">[http://montereyonewater.org/ Monterey One Water Homepage]</ref>, was established as a joint effort between the [[Monterey]], [[Pacific Grove]], and [[Seaside]] Sanitation districts. They joined together to provide the water treatment standards set in place by the Federal [[Clean Water Act]]. Before the establishment of Monterey One Water, each individual community was responsible for the management of their own wastewater, which was often discharged discharge directly into the bay.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

==Groundwater Supply==<br />
<br />
In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the [[Clean Water Act]], Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating [[groundwater]] supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying [[aquifer]], exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion.

== Summary ==<br />
<br />
Formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), Monterey One Water was established in 1972 to administer water rationing in response to severe drought conditions <ref>[http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_tertiary_treatment.html Monterey One Water, 2017. Recycling Water. http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_tertiary_treatment.html]</ref>. MRWPCA was formed under a Joint Powers Authority agreement between the [[City of Monterey]], the [[City of Pacific Grove]] and the [[Seaside County Sanitation District]] as a peninsula-wide effort to resolve area’s water issues. <ref name = "NOPE">[https://www.deepwaterdesal.com/joint-powers-authority.htm Deep Water Desal, 2017. Joint Powers Authority About. https://www.deepwaterdesal.com/joint-powers-authority.htm]</ref> MRWPCA operates the [[Regional Treatment Plant]], the [[Salinas River Diversion Facility]], the [[Castroville Seawater Intrusion Project]], sewage collection pipelines, and 25 wastewater pump stations <ref name = "NOPE">[https://www.deepwaterdesal.com/joint-powers-authority.htm Deep Water Desal, 2017.

<br />
==Formation==<br />
<br />
Monterey One Water<ref name = "Monterey One">[http://montereyonewater.org/ Monterey One Water Homepage]</ref>, formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), was established in November, 1972, as a joint effort between the [[Monterey]], [[Pacific Grove]], and [[Seaside]] Sanitation districts. They joined together to provide the water treatment standards set in place by the Federal [[Clean Water Act]]. Before the establishment of Monterey One Water, each individual community was responsible for the management of their own wastewater, which was often discharged discharge directly into the bay.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017. About: History. http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html]</ref><br />
<br />
==Groundwater Supply==<br />
<br />
In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the [[Clean Water Act]], Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating [[groundwater]] supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying [[aquifer]], exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion. The continued encroachment of saltwater ([[Salinas Valley Seawater Intrusion]]) into the [[Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin]] began to pose a serious threat to the regions multi-billion dollar agricultural industry, as well as limiting the drinking water supply for the [[City of Salinas]]. Community leaders began discussing possible solutions to address the growing concerns of saltwater intrusion, eventually deciding on the use of recycled wastewater to supplement crop irrigation, reducing the need to deplete groundwater reserves. After an extensive 11-year study the Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture final report was released on April 3rd, 1987. <ref name = "Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture"> [http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf Monterey One Water, 1987.Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture. http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf] </ref> This document outline the feasibility of using reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation and address concerns about potential heath impacts associated with consuming crops grown with recycled water.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017. About: History. http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html]</ref><br />
<br />
==Wastewater Treatment==<br />
<br />
In 1983, Monterey One Water was ready to implement its plan of an unified sanitation district. This process included the construction of a wastewater conveyance system that utilized neighboring treatment plant stations to distribute wastewater to one centralized facility.<ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> [http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html Monterey One Water, 2017. Wastewater Conveyance. http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html] </ref> These treatment plants were decommissioned in February, 1990, after the new 29.6 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) [[Regional Treatment Plant]] began operation.<br />
<br />
==Current Responsibilities==<br />
<br />
As of 2018, Monterey One Water is responsible for operating and maintaining 25 pump stations, 35 pressure-vacuum stations, and approximately 750 miles of pipeline and the [[Regional Treatment Plant]] treats and distributes 18.5 MGD for agricultural and domestic use. <ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> [http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

== Summary ==<br />
<br />
Formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), Monterey One Water was established in 1972 to administer water rationing in response to severe drought conditions <ref>[http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_tertiary_treatment.html Monterey One Water, 2017. Recycling Water. http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_tertiary_treatment.html]</ref>. MRWPCA was formed under a Joint Powers Authority agreement between the City of Monterey, the City of Pacific Grove and the Seaside County Sanitation District as a peninsula-wide effort to resolve area’s water issues <ref name = "NOP">http://www.mpwaterreplenishment.org/docs/Final%20GWR%20NOP%2030May2013%20with%20figures.pdf</ref>. MRWPCA operates the [[Regional Treatment Plant]], the [[Salinas River Diversion Facility]], the [[Castroville Seawater Intrusion Project]], sewage collection pipelines, and 25 wastewater pump stations <ref name = "NOP"/>.<br />

==Formation==<br />
<br />
Monterey One Water<ref name = "Monterey One">[http://montereyonewater.org/ Monterey One Water Homepage]</ref>, formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), was established in November, 1972, as a joint effort between the [[Monterey]], [[Pacific Grove]], and [[Seaside]] Sanitation districts. They joined together to provide the water treatment standards set in place by the Federal [[Clean Water Act]]. Before the establishment of Monterey One Water, each individual community was responsible for the management of their own wastewater, which was often discharged discharge directly into the bay.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

<br />
==Groundwater Supply==<br />
<br />
In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the [[Clean Water Act]], Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating [[groundwater]] supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying [[aquifer]], exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion. The continued encroachment of saltwater ([[Salinas Valley Seawater Intrusion]]) into the [[Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin]] began to pose a serious threat to the regions multi-billion dollar agricultural industry, as well as limiting the drinking water supply for the [[City of Salinas]]. Community leaders began discussing possible solutions to address the growing concerns of saltwater intrusion, eventually deciding on the use of recycled wastewater to supplement crop irrigation, reducing the need to deplete groundwater reserves. After an extensive 11-year study the Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture final report was released on April 3rd, 1987. <ref name = "Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture"> [http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf Monterey One Water, 1987.Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture. http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf] </ref> This document outline the feasibility of using reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation and address concerns about potential heath impacts associated with consuming crops grown with recycled water.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

== Summary ==<br />
<br />
Formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), Monterey One Water was established in 1979 to administer water rationing in response to severe drought conditions <ref>http://www.mrwpca.org/recycling/</ref>. MRWPCA was formed under a Joint Powers Authority agreement between the City of Monterey, the City of Pacific Grove and the Seaside County Sanitation District as a peninsula-wide effort to resolve area’s water issues <ref name = "NOP">http://www.mpwaterreplenishment.org/docs/Final%20GWR%20NOP%2030May2013%20with%20figures.pdf</ref>. MRWPCA operates the [[Regional Treatment Plant]], the [[Salinas River Diversion Facility]], the [[Castroville Seawater Intrusion Project]], sewage collection pipelines, and 25 wastewater pump stations <ref name = "NOP"/>.<br />

==Formation==<br />
<br />
Monterey One Water<ref name = "Monterey One">[http://montereyonewater.org/ Monterey One Water Homepage]</ref>, formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), was established in November, 1972, as a joint effort between the [[Monterey]], [[Pacific Grove]], and [[Seaside]] Sanitation districts. They joined together to provide the water treatment standards set in place by the Federal [[Clean Water Act]]. Before the establishment of Monterey One Water, each individual community was responsible for the management of their own wastewater, which was often discharged discharge directly into the bay.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017. About: History. http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html]</ref><br />
<br />
==Groundwater Supply==<br />
<br />
In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the [[Clean Water Act]], Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating [[groundwater]] supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying [[aquifer]], exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion. The continued encroachment of saltwater ([[Salinas Valley Seawater Intrusion]]) into the [[Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin]] began to pose a serious threat to the regions multi-billion dollar agricultural industry, as well as limiting the drinking water supply for the [[City of Salinas]]. Community leaders began discussing possible solutions to address the growing concerns of saltwater intrusion, eventually deciding on the use of recycled wastewater to supplement crop irrigation, reducing the need to deplete groundwater reserves. After an extensive 11-year study the Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture<ref name = "Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture"> Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf </ref> final report was released on April 3rd, 1987. This document outline the feasibility of using reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation and address concerns about potential heath impacts associated with consuming crops grown with recycled water.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017. About: History. http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html]</ref><br />
<br />
==Wastewater Treatment==<br />
<br />
In 1983, Monterey One Water was ready to implement its plan of an unified sanitation district. This process included the construction of a wastewater conveyance<ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> Wastewater Conveyance http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html </ref> system that utilized neighboring treatment plant stations to distribute wastewater to one centralized facility. These treatment plants were decommissioned in February, 1990, after the new 29.6 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) [[Regional Treatment Plant]] began operation.<br />
<br />
==Current Responsibilities==<br />
<br />
As of 2018, Monterey One Water is responsible for operating and maintaining 25 pump stations, 35 pressure-vacuum stations, and approximately 750 miles of pipeline and the [[Regional Treatment Plant]] treats and distributes 18.5 MGD for agricultural and domestic use. <ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> [http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html Monterey One Water, 2017.

<br />
The Regional Treatment Plant (RTP) was constructed two miles north of the [[City of Marina]]<ref name="About MRWPCA, Our History" />. It began operation in 1990 with a design capacity of 29.6 million gallons per day (MGD), and was situated near farmland experiencing the most [[seawater intrusion]]. The construction costs were funded through both state and federal grants, and represent a sum total of $150M. The operation and maintenance costs for the RTP are paid for by property owners<ref name="About MRWPCA, Our History" />.<br />

==Formation==<br />
<br />
Monterey One Water<ref name = "Monterey One">[http://montereyonewater.org/ Monterey One Water Homepage]</ref>, formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), was established in November, 1972, as a joint effort between the [[Monterey]], [[Pacific Grove]], and [[Seaside]] Sanitation districts. They joined together to provide the water treatment standards set in place by the Federal [[Clean Water Act]]. Before the establishment of Monterey One Water, each individual community was responsible for the management of their own wastewater, which was often discharged discharge directly into the bay.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017. About: History. http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html]</ref><br />
<br />
==Groundwater Supply==<br />
<br />
In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the clean water act, Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating groundwater supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping of for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying aquifer, exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion. The continued encroachment of saltwater ([[Salinas Valley Seawater Intrusion]]) into the [[Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin]] began to pose a serious threat to the regions multi-billion dollar agricultural industry, as well as limiting the drinking water supply for the [[City of Salinas]]. Community leaders began discussing possible solutions to address the growing concerns of saltwater intrusion, eventually deciding on the use of recycled wastewater to supplement crop irrigation, reducing the need to deplete groundwater reserves. After an extensive 11-year study the Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture<ref name = "Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture"> Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf </ref> final report was released on April 3rd, 1987. This document outline the feasibility of using reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation and address concerns about potential heath impacts associated with consuming crops grown with recycled water.<ref name = "History">[http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html Monterey One Water, 2017. About: History. http://montereyonewater.org/about_history.html]</ref><br />
<br />
==Wastewater Treatment==<br />
<br />
In 1983, Monterey One Water was ready to implement its plan of unified sanitation district. This process included the construction of a wastewater conveyance<ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> Wastewater Conveyance http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html </ref> system that utilized neighboring treatment plant stations to distribute wastewater to one centralized facility. These treatment plants were decommissioned in February, 1990, after the new 29.6 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) [[Regional Treatment Plant]] began operation. <br />
<br />
==Current Responsibilities==<br />
<br />
As of 2018, Monterey One Water is responsible for operating and maintaining 25 pump stations, 35 pressure-vacuum stations, and approximately 750 miles of pipeline and the [[Regional Treatment Plant]] treats and distributes 18.5 MGD for agricultural and domestic use.<br />

Formerly known as the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), Monterey One Water was established in 1979 to administer water rationing in response to severe drought conditions <ref>http://www.mrwpca.org/recycling/</ref>. MRWPCA was formed under a Joint Powers Authority agreement between the City of Monterey, the City of Pacific Grove and the Seaside County Sanitation District as a peninsula-wide effort to resolve area’s water issues <ref name = "NOP">http://www.mpwaterreplenishment.org/docs/Final%20GWR%20NOP%2030May2013%20with%20figures.pdf</ref>. MRWPCA operates the [[Regional Treatment Plant]], the [[Salinas River Diversion Facility]], the [[Castroville Seawater Intrusion Project]], sewage collection pipelines, and 25 wastewater pump stations <ref name = "NOP"/>.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Monterey One Water<ref name = "Monterey One"> Monterey One Water Homepage http://montereyonewater.org/ </ref>, formerly Move Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA), was established in November, 1972, as a joint effort between the [[Monterey]], [[Pacific Grove]], and [[Seaside]] Sanitation districts in order to meet increased water treatment standards set in place by the Federal [[Clean Water Act]]. Before the establishment of Monterey One Water, each individual community was responsible for the management of their own wastewater, which was often discharged discharge directly into the bay.<br />
<br />
<br />
In addition to meeting the water quality standards outlined in the clean water act, Monterey One Water was responsible addressing the region deteriorating groundwater supply. By the mid-1970s, excessive groundwater pumping of for agricultural purposes resulted in an overdraft of the underlying aquifer, exacerbating the effects of saltwater intrusion. The continued encroachment of saltwater into the [[Salinas Valley Groundwater Basin]] began to pose a serious threat to the regions multi-billion dollar agricultural industry, as well as limiting the drinking water supply for the [[City of Salinas]]. Community leaders began discussing possible solutions to address the growing concerns of saltwater intrusion, eventually deciding on the use of recycled wastewater to supplement crop irrigation, reducing the need to deplete groundwater reserves. After an extensive 11-year study the Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture<ref name = "Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture"> Monterey Wastewater Reclamation Study for Agriculture http://montereyonewater.org/docs/about/mwrsa.pdf </ref> final report was released on April 3rd, 1987. This document outline the feasibility of using reclaimed water for agricultural irrigation and address concerns about potential heath impacts associated with consuming crops grown with recycled water.<br />
<br />
<br />
In 1983, Monterey One Water was ready to implement its plan of unified sanitation district. This process included the construction of a wastewater conveyance<ref name = "Wastewater Conveyance"> Wastewater Conveyance http://montereyonewater.org/facilities_conveyance.html </ref> system that utilized neighboring treatment plant stations to distribute wastewater to one centralized facility. These treatment plants were decommissioned in February, 1990, after the new 29.6 Million Gallon per Day (MGD) [[Regional Treatment Plant]] began opwaeration. <br />
<br />
<br />
Today Monterey One Water is responsible for operating and maintaining 25 pump stations, 35 pressure-vacuum stations, and approximately 750 miles of pipeline and the [[Regional Treatment Plant]] treats and distributes 18.5 MGD for agricultural and domestic use.<br />
