Abstract
Treated wastewater has been used successfully to irrigate forage crops on 1,100 acres in Sonoma County during the past two years. The city of Santa Rosa, with the help of federal and state funding, is delivering effluent to local farmers from a treatment plant with a dry-weather flow of approximately 5.5 million gallons per day.
