 population of 7 million expected to top 10 million in the next 25 years. To maintain sustainable water supplies for irrigation of food crops, Arizona has been at the forefront of water reuse. Though technologies are in place to produce extremely clean potable
 water through wastewater reclamation, there are still questions to be addressed: does recycled wastewater, which can contain trace levels of contaminants, spread antibiotic resistance into soils and food crops, endangering public health? Are the residents
 of Arizona supportive of using recycled water for crop irrigation? Where do we need to focus our research on water reclamation technology to ensure a healthy and sustainable food supply? This talk will include current understanding, as well as the unknowns,
