[40] [41] This is equivalent to 43 million gallons per day (mgd), or about 86% of the plant's output. The cost of water from the plant will be $100 to $200 more per acre-foot than recycled water (approximately 0.045 cents per gallon), $1,000 to $1,100 more than reservoir water (approx. 0.32 cents per gallon), but $100 to $200 less than ...
“Of the 6.6 million gallons per day, (Hyundai) is estimated to need 4 million gallons per day once we reach full production – 300,000 cars annually,” company spokeswoman Bianca Johnson said ...
The plant was deemed fully operational in 2007, [134] and is designed to run at a maximum capacity of 25 million US gallons (95,000 m 3) per day. [135] The plant can now produce up to 25 million US gallons (95,000 m 3) per day when needed. [136]
Placing flexible, porous rubber or fabric soaker hoses on the soil around plants is another preferred way to irrigate, as it allows water to seep slowly over roots. Applying water in the morning ...
The plant was completed in 2015 at a cost of over $3 billion. [20] [21] The facility was constructed 160 feet (49 m) under Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx and filters water delivered by the New Croton Aqueduct. [22] The 830-by-550-foot (250 by 170 m) plant, which is bigger than Yankee Stadium, [20] is the city's first water filtration plant. [21]
