Process water treatment systems: breweries.Existing law requires the State Water Resources Control Board to establish uniform statewide recycling criteria for each varying type of use of recycled water where the use involves the protection of public health. Existing law requires, on or before December 1, 2022, the state board, in consultation with specified state agencies, to adopt regulations for risk-based water quality standards for the onsite treatment and reuse of nonpotable water, as provided. Existing law requires that a local jurisdiction establish a program for onsite treated nonpotable water systems before any such systems are installed. This bill would require the state board, on or before December 1, 2025, in consultation with the State Department of Public Health, Food and Drug Branch, to adopt regulations for microbiological, chemical, and physical water quality and treatment requirements for voluntary onsite treatment and reuse of process water in breweries, as specified.

The food and drug branch shall provide information to the entity that implements a process water treatment system in a brewery explaining why termination of operation is required and, as warranted, shall grant that entity a reasonable opportunity to come into compliance with the relevant regulations instead of requiring termination.(c) A process water treatment system in a brewery in operation before the effective date of the regulations adopted pursuant to subdivision (a) shall comply with the regulations within two years of the effective date of the regulations. If an entity is working to come into compliance with the regulations, but due to extenuating circumstances related to the engineering, repair, or replacement of the system a further extension is warranted, the food and drug branch may grant an extension to comply with the regulations not to exceed five years after the effective date of the regulations.(d) The state board may contract with public or private entities for advice on public health issues and scientific and technical matters regarding the content of the regulations adopted pursuant to subdivision (a).(e) Before beginning onsite process water reuse, a brewery engaging in onsite reuse using a process water treatment system under this section shall consult with the water and wastewater service providers in its service area that would potentially be impacted by operation of the process water treatment system.(f) This section does not apply to water treatment systems that treat water that is not reused at the brewery or in the brewing process such as pretreatment water systems that pretreat water before delivery to sanitation or other water agencies.(g) Notwithstanding subdivision (a) of Section 13558.1, a brewery may install and operate an onsite process water treatment system pursuant to this section.
