Pasco to consider buying 80 acres near Processed Water Reuse Facility to expand irrigated land
Summary
Pasco City Council will consider purchasing about 80 acres near the Processed Water Reuse Facility (PWRF). The PWRF repurposes water from food processors for irrigation; city officials said more treated water is available after a recent expansion and the purchase would expand land available for that irrigation.
The Moderator said Pasco City Council will be asked to consider purchasing about 80 acres located near the Processed Water Reuse Facility (PWRF). Officials described the PWRF as a facility that takes water left over from food processing and repurposes it for irrigation; the city expanded the facility last year and now has additional treated water available.
If approved, the purchase would increase the amount of land available to receive irrigation water produced by the PWRF. The Moderator framed the land purchase as a follow-on step enabled by the facility expansion and emphasized the connection between treated-water supply and land acreage available for irrigation.
The transcript did not provide a purchase price, staff recommendation, or specific agenda item number; those details were not specified in the announcement.
