Mayor Bass Joins State Water Officials and LADWP to Announce $19 Million in State Funds for Water Supply Reliability Projects for L.A.


City of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and State and local water officials announced earlier this month that the City of Los Angeles received $19.1 million from the State for climate resilience projects, including one that will pay for free yard transformations in underserved LA communities.


About $14.6 million of the grant from the California Department of Water Resources’ (DWR) will fund a free lawn replacement program set to launch in 2024. Qualifying LADWP customers with single-family homes in LA’s underserved communities can have their water-thirsty lawns replaced with water-efficient landscapes at no cost to them!


The remainder of the State’s grant of $4.5 million will go toward the construction of the Dominguez Gap Recycled Water Project in the City of Wilmington. This pipeline connection is expected to supply LADWP with an additional 3.5 million gallons per day of advanced treated recycled water, offsetting the demand for drinking water equivalent to that used by 47,000 customers per year.
