Local cemetery switches to recycled water
Bellevue Memorial Park , which uses about 160,000 gallons a water a day, has started using recycled water to irrigate their lawns and gardens.
The 78 acre Ontario cemetery began using the recycled water last month.
The Ontario Cemetery Association's Board of Trustees, who oversee Bellevue, began planning for the recycled water project more than 2 ½ years ago.
The move to use recycled water is part of Bellevue's commitment to save energy and to better utilize resources. The cemetery has reduced it's impact on landfills by mulching it's lawn clippings for the last 30 years, and by generating electricity through a solar power system that generates approximately 75 percent of the power consumed by the cemetery.
