The City of San Luis Obispo Utilities Department will reveal major changes at its Water Resource Recovery Facility during a ribbon cutting ceremony and community tour. Members of the public, media and local elected officials will get an inside look at the facility’s transformation as the ribbon cutting unveils the much needed plant upgrades.

As part of its energy efficiency initiative called Progressive Resource & Energy Partnership (PREP), the Utilities Department has joined forces with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E).  Through this partnership, the City will save money, decrease its energy use and reduce its carbon footprint.   

The plant treats over 1.7 billion gallons of wastewater each year and this project will help the environment and control costs. Tour guests will discover what upgrades that have been completed, have plenty of photo opportunities and get to ask questions directly to the people involved in this exciting public-private partnership.
