A Green Utility District is the establishment of a new development or a zone within a community, where the application of an Alternative Wastewater Treatment System (AWTS)/Xerolet Eco-System will achieve significant water conservation without connection to a central sewer system or septic tank.

A Green Utility District will enable utility providers to continue to operate central wastewater systems, yet eliminate the need for low to moderate intensity development to connect to central systems.

 

A Green Utility District will enable utility provider to focus on high intensity users and limit the need, and cost, to expand central systems. As a result, infrastructure and maintenance costs will be reduced.

 

New community development will operate independent from local government/central sewer system providers.

 

A Green Utility District will enable communities and new developments to take a vital step to become a "green community."

 

Potable Water

There is no more fresh water on earth today than there was One Million Years ago.

 

Water demand for agricultural, human consumption and industrialized uses is expanding at an increasing rate.

 

Shifting climate patterns are creating expanding drought conditions.

 

The availability of sufficient potable water is becoming recognized as one of the most critical issues facing the future of the nation and the world.

Central Wastewater Systems

● Wastewater plants and collection systems are expensive to construct and maintain.
● Ground water and surface water protection regulations continue to require increasing levels of wastewater treatment.
● Water discharge requirements continue to require more advanced treatment or expanded lands for disposal.
● Water conservation criteria is forcing construction of expensive reuse water systems.
● Deterioration of infrastructure results in ever escalating maintenance cost.
● Central wastewater systems are not a money maker for communities. Given the choice, communities have repeatedly    stated that they wish they could get out of the wastewater business and focus strictly on the delivery of water.

Septic Tanks It is estimated that approximately 40% of these systems are improperly functioning.
Septic Tanks are recognized as one of the major sources of ground and surface water pollution.
There is a lack of monitoring septic tank system performance.
Septic Tank systems do not capture water for reuse.
