Multi-stakeholder Traci Minamide, chief operating officer at LA Sanitation told Wa- ter. desalination + reuse: "One Water LA 2040 aims to increase our water supply by considering all aspects of the urban water cy - cle: imported water, groundwa- ter, conservation, potable water, wastewater, recycled water, and stormwater. A large amount of stormwater currently flows into rivers and out into the ocean, if we can capture more stormwater run-off, we can use it to infiltrate into our groundwater aquifers. We want to create wastewa - ter projects that increase the recycled water we produce, then we can look at our potable water system and how to strengthen it to improve distribution." One Water LA aims to deepen its impact, compared to the typical siloed approach to planning taken by city agencies, by increasing coordination and cooperation between different departments, partners and other stakeholders. "It is the first time the city has broken down institutional barriers during the planning process to look for opportunities to look at water management in a smarter, more cost-effective way," says Inge Wiersema, chief of water resources at Carollo, and project manager for One Water LA 2040. "The steering committee included representatives of 14 city departments and six regional agencies, including some that do not necessarily have water at the forefront of their agendas." California Department of Transportation explored new ways to design its linear road and rail assets and real estate to incorporate stormwater management and capture $13.3 BILLION total budget $5.6 BILLION stormwater projects $3.4 BILLION wastewater projects LA Sanitation has begun preliminary designs for another major project to modify Tillman Water Reclamation Plant, in Van Nuys, that would enable it to replenish the San Fernando Groundwater Basin aquifer with up to 30,000 acre-feet per year of purified water to increase the supply available for potable use.
