West Basin Reaches Milestone
of Producing 200 Billion
Gallons of Recycled Water
During the drought of the late 1980s and
early 1990s, West Basin responded to the need
to create a new, sustainable water supply and
committed to building a world-class, state-ofthe
art water recycling facility in the City of
El Segundo. In 1995 the District opened its
high-tech Edward C. Little Water Recycling
Facility (ECLWRF) to further purify already
treated sewage, which West Basin purchases
from the nearby LA Sanitation Hyperion Water
Reclamation Plant. Today, the ECLWRF and
West Basin’s three satellite treatment facilities
produce five types of customer-tailored recycled
water using advanced treatment technologies,
a process that prevents more than 12 billion
gallons of treated sewage from being discharged
into the Santa Monica Bay each year.
The District’s five types of recycled water
serve customers for multiple purposes including:
irrigation, industrial cooling towers, high- and
low-pressure boiler feeds, as well as seawater
barrier and groundwater replenishment. West
Basin treats and purifies water that the Water
Replenishment District of Southern California
(WRD) injects into the West Coast Basin
Seawater Barrier (Barrier).
West Basin also recently broke ground for
the renovation of the ECLWRF visitor and
education center. Since its opening in 1995,
more than 100,000 people, including local
school children, college groups, international
delegations, trade groups and professionals,
have visited the facility. The renovated center
will feature new content, displays and exhibits
that will better enable the District to help
educate the approximately 6,000 students and
guests that tour the ECLWRF each year. The
center will further reinforce the West Basin
El Segundo Residents!
