Recycled Water. To meet future water demands while reducing dependence on imported water, the City of San Diego built the North City Water Reclamation Plant and the South Bay Water Reclamation Plant. These plants treat wastewater to a level that is approved for irrigation, manufacturing and other non-drinking, or non-potable purposes. Recycled water gives San Diego a dependable, year-round and locally controlled water resource.
The supraspinatus tendon is the muscle that connects the scapula to the humerus in the rotator cuff. This tendon creates a tight fit between the ball and socket of the shoulder joint. It runs along the top of the shoulder and is about as wide as a thumb.
The rotator cuff is composed of four tendons that surround the humeral head (ball). In addition to moving the shoulder joint, the rotator cuff compresses the ball into the socket. This compression helps stabilize the shoulder joint, providing the shoulder the widest range of motion of any joint in the body. The most common tendon involved in tendinosis and rotator cuff tears is the supraspinatus tendon. This tendon is positioned between the humeral head and the acromion bone which provides a roof above the ball and socket joint.
