The next phase of Valley Water’s effort to expand the recycled water distribution system in Gilroy, serving new customers, improving service delivery through system redundancy during outages, and supporting future system expansions, will commence construction in December 2025. Construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.
The South County Recycled Water Project Phase 1C involves installing approximately 3,200 linear feet of 24-inch diameter pipe, extending from east of Luchessa Avenue to Cameron Boulevard. The pipeline connects the 36-inch recycled water pipeline installed as part of Phase 1B, to the South County Regional Wastewater Authority’s (SCRWA) 12-inch recycled water pipeline, creating redundancy in the system.
The project is being coordinated with the City of Gilroy and SCRWA, both long-term partners of Valley Water, to supply recycled water in Gilroy.
