Reclaimed and recycled water programs are limited in Westchester compared with arid regions, but the county supports rainwater harvesting and graywater pilots consistent with NY plumbing code and DEC water-reuse guidance for irrigation only.
Westchester water utilities such as SUEZ Water New York and Westchester Joint Water Works require customers to report suspected service-line leaks promptly and offer one-time bill adjustments for documented underground leaks repaired within set timeframes.
