Recycled Water Construction Meters, Hydrants and Commercial Fill Station
Location for Hydrant Meter Pick-up and Return
Construction meter returns and rental pick-ups are handled at our District Office, 7051 Dublin Boulevard, Dublin. Please email constructionmeter@dsrsd.com or call (925) 828-8524 in advance to coordinate meter pick-up or return with office staff. When an appointment has been made for meter pick-up or return, please report to the rear of the District Office and ring the "construction meter" intercom.
The Commercial Recycled Water Fill Station is open for use by permit holders. Short-term closures due to construction at the water recycling plant will be posted here.
Use Recycled Water for Construction
The District encourages the use of recycled water for construction purposes where it is reasonably available. Uses include grading and compaction, dust control, landscape irrigation, and sewer flushing. Recycled water is available from hydrants and at the water recycling plant in Pleasanton. Recycled water quality data may be found here.
Recycled Water Construction Meters and Hydrants
Purple recycled water hydrants are located throughout the District’s service area (map). To use these hydrants, you must obtain a purple recycled water construction meter from the District. Recycled water hydrants have unique nozzles that do not fit the District’s yellow potable water construction meters. This minimizes the possibility of cross connections between the potable and recycled water distribution systems.
Please call Utility Billing/Customer Service at (925) 828-8524 to make an appointment for picking up a construction meter. You will be asked to complete a Water Reuse Permit and Construction Meter Use Agreement and pay a deposit (check only) and any applicable fees. The District Office is located at 7051 Dublin Blvd. in Dublin and is open 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Where recycled water distribution mains are adjacent to a construction site, DSRSD may allow temporary connection to the distribution main. For more information, call (925) 828-0515 and follow menu prompts to Engineering, construction permits.

Commercial Recycled Water Fill Station
The Commercial Recycled Water Fill Station is located inside the DSRSD Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility at 7399 Johnson Drive in Pleasanton.
Before your first water pickup, you must submit a Water Reuse Permit Application to Stefanie Olson. Your permit application will be reviewed to determine approval. If approved and you are a new fill station user, you will be contacted for training and review of requirements. Please contact Stefanie Olson via email or at (925) 875-2245. Download the Water Reuse Permit to fill in and send to her.
Due to site constraints, the commercial fill station can only accommodate water trucks with a capacity of 4,000 gallons or less. Tractor-trailer water tankers cannot be accommodated.
