California Department of Water Resources (DWR) assisted and cooperated with
the City of Santa Barbara and East Bay Municipal Utility District in conducting
a two-year study of graywater use for three single family residences from November
1996 to November 1998. DWR's purpose in sponsoring the study was to collect
data at single-family sites to determine the benefits, costs, and impacts of graywater
use. Data on graywater use, soil quality and water quality were anlyzed in the three
case studies. Potential water savings and the impact of graywater on plants
and soil was documented. The two local agencies were interested in determining
how practical it is to install graywater systems, including capital cost, customer
acceptance, and necessary permits, and how graywater would affect soils and landscape
quality.
