South Florida is one of the wettest regions in the country, but this year it's caught in a drought.Â
Its water-management district instituted the toughest usage restrictions in history last spring.
But it's not enough, experts say, that's why South Florida is turning to another solution: water reuse. One of the most innovative ways to reclaim wastewater is to treat it to the point where it's nearly potable and then to let land – a natural filter – finish the job.
