Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts Master Facilities Plan 2020-2050
The Master Facilities Plan for the Long Beach Water Reclamation Plant outlines the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts' strategic direction for wastewater management and reclamation through 2050. It provides population, flow, and load projections for the plant's tributary area. The plan meticulously reviews current and future regulatory requirements, identifying constituents of concern such as temperature, chronic toxicity, ammonia, and emerging contaminants like PFAS and microplastics, and proposes strategies for compliance across surface water discharge, potable, and non-potable reuse. Furthermore, it assesses the existing facilities, performance, and capacity of the plant's unit processes, highlighting potential limitations and guiding future infrastructure improvements to ensure efficient and compliant operations.
