History was made at the end of last year when California, USA passed regulations allowing ‘direct potable reuse’. DPR means purified recycled water provided directly into drinking water pipes and distribution systems for the community, without first spending time in an environmental buffer (such as an aquifer or reservoir). The purified recycled water could be added before the conventional water treatment plant, or afterwards (directly into the distribution system).

The Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) is pleased to announce the WSAA Young Utility Leader's Advisory Group comprising the Young Utility Leaders Program's current leaders and alumni to support WSAA's strategic direction.
In November, WSAA's Young Utilities leaders had the opportunity to join the WSAA Members Meeting and meet with industry leaders from Australia and New Zealand. This was a valuable experience for all and our Young Utilities Leaders have reflected on their experience.
