Obstacles to Water Reuse in Irrigated Agriculture
Publication: World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2022
ABSTRACT
In September 2019, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released the first draft of the Water Reuse Action Plan (WRAP), a collaborative initiative that will facilitate water reuse nationwide through the development of partnerships across the water spectrum including federal, state, tribal, and water sector stakeholders. Collaboration among these participants resulted in the release of the finalized version of WRAP in February 2020. This paper examines the 37 specific action plans outlined in WRAP to determine which actions focus on the obstacles to water reuse. Highlighting and emphasizing the appropriate actions will help overcome these barriers to solidify water reuse in irrigation as an important part of our water portfolio.
