Building the infrastructure for a drought-proof future depends as much on human relationships as it does on concrete and steel.
The Sacramento Area Sewer District has spent years cultivating deep-rooted trust with local landowners to ensure the Harvest Water project successfully delivers recycled water to the region's agricultural heart. This massive collaborative effort aligns the operational needs of utility managers with the financial realities of local growers, creating a unified front for regional water security according to Sonny Lunde of the Sacramento Area Sewer District.
"The partnerships with local agencies, the farmers and all the stakeholders is essential when everyone is invested both financially and operationally, it sets the foundation for long term success of the project."
