I just found out that LA doesn't reuse their wastewater.
Here this whole time they have been talking about things like building a pipeline from the Great Lakes and they don't even treat and reuse.

Yes, there is no potable reuse at the moment because their initial plant opened during an election year & valley secession movement, but a pilot plant for indirect potable reuse is in the works and current reclamation efforts still yielded 35.4% of total county sanitation districts effluent per FY 2014-2015.
