The Sand Creek Station golf course is connected to the wastewater treatment plant and uses reclaimed water to keep the greens green. The water is first used by Newton water customers before being treated by the wastewater plant. The water flows down Sand Creek and into the retention pond, where it is drawn up by the sprinkler system to irrigate the grass.
Hays, Kansas also uses reclaimed water.
