Groundwater Replenishment Performance and Operations Lessons Learned During Clearwater?s One Year Pilot

This paper outlines issues that affected the operations of the groundwater replenishment treatment train at the City of Clearwater and the lessens learned that were later incorporated into the full-scale design of the Groundwater Replenishment water purification and aquifer recharge systems. In the next several years, multiple Florida utilities are anticipated to implement full-scale Groundwater Replenishment Programs. Sharing best practices and operational lessons will help Florida utilities move confidently into a future of sustainable, abundant water supplies.
