Abstract

On February 27, 2019, David Ross, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Assistant Administrator for Water, announced that the Agency will facilitate development of a Water Reuse Action Plan (WRAP) that will seek to better integrate federal policy and leverage the expertise of both industry and government to ensure the effective use of the Nation’s water resources. A draft of the WRAP is scheduled for release and public review in September 2019 at the Annual WateReuse Symposium in San Diego. The EPA has opened this public docket to collect input and ideas that will inform development of the WRAP. The EPA is also posting a document entitled Discussion Framework for Development of a Draft Water Reuse Action Plan (“Discussion Framework”) that provides background, context, and details on development of the WRAP. The Water Reuse Action Plan will seek to foster water reuse as an important component of integrated water resource management. The actions are part of a larger effort by the Administration to better coordinate and focus taxpayer resources on some of the Nation’s most pressing water resource challenges, including ensuring water availability and mitigating the risks posed by droughts. The EPA is working closely with the Department of the Interior, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Energy, and other federal partners, as well as facilitating discussions among state, tribal, and water sector stakeholders and forming new partnerships to develop and deploy the plan. The EPA will not prepare a formal response to comments. Rather, this docket is intended to create an accessible forum for public input. Nonetheless, the EPA will review all comments received to help inform development of the draft Water Reuse Action Plan. Please submit comments by July 1, 2019 11:59 PM.
