I believe dewilson58 lives between 466a and 44. If so then he does not have reclaimed water at all, he would have stormwater for irrigation.

Three types of water: aquifer, stormwater, reclaimed water (treated wastewater)
Three areas: north of 466, between 466 and 44, south of 44

North of 466: Irrigation water is potable water from the aquifer - one water meter

Between: Irrigation water is stormwater runoff - two water meters. Reclaimed water is used for golf courses and commercial areas.

South of 44: Irrigation water is a combination of all three types - two water meters.

Sediment is not a function of stormwater vs reclaimed. Sediment is a function of how low the water is, how near the bottom the system inlet is, and how good the filtering is.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
