The California Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASA)
appreciates the opportunity to comment on the January Draft of the
2030 Target Scoping Plan Update (January Draft). 

We welcome the opportunity to further discuss and clarify each of
the items we have commented on in our attached letter. We want to
emphasize that POTWs have opportunities to provide cross-sector
benefits to be: 
– Suppliers of a renewable fertilizer/soil amendment product in the
form of biosolids
– Suppliers of a low carbon fuel
– Providers of renewable energy
– Suppliers of a sustainable (drought-proof) water supply
– Environmental stewards of our natural and working lands

All of these can significantly contribute toward each of the
alternatives for meeting the 2030 GHG emissions reduction target.
In most cases, all that is lacking is the funding to develop the
additional infrastructure, and market certainty for recycling and
reuse of resultant products, to make these projects a reality. 

Thank you for considering our comments. Please contact me if you
have any questions at (925)705-6404 or via email at
sdeslauriers@carollo.com. We look forward to working together as
proactive partners on our multitude of shared objectives.

Sincerely,
Sarah A. Deslauriers
