In Texas, Chapter 210 (30 TAC 210), Use of Reclaimed Water Regulations of the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality rules have been the guide for Reuse applications since
1997. Subchapter E relating to Industrial Reuse Authorization has recently been revised by
TCEQ. A sub-committee of the Texas-AWWA Water Conservation and Reuse Division has
been active in identifying Rule Revisions the sub-committee believe are appropriate due to perceived
implementation constraints and technological advances. This paper presents the basis of change
proposed by the subcommittee. While some changes may be specific to Texas, the Committee is
utilizing their member participation in the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Guidelines for Water Reuse revisions to focus
on the technical changes that are identifying new "emerging contaminants" almost daily.
Definition of appropriate water quality levels is also being addressed to reflect quality levels
adopted by other States and those levels identified in the USEPA Guidelines.
