The possibilities of treated wastewater (TWW) reuse for irrigation purposes in the Northern Jordan Valley have been described. As shown by the analysis of the data, the results indicate a wide non-compliance with the Jordanian Standard 983/2006. Most problematic parameters are BOD, COD, nitrogen content, TSS. TWW will be blended with fresh water prior to use in agriculture. The blended water quality was reviewed after mixing of fresh water with the existing TWW without plant improvements. In general if there are no WWTP upgrades, the blended water quality satisfies the requirements of the Jordanian Water Quality Guidelines.
