Water Pollution Control
Another important part of our city services is the management of the Class III Municipal Wastewater Treatment Facility, which is integral to protecting the health and well being of the community and downstream users.
The facility consists of two treatment plants that provide preliminary, primary, secondary and disinfection—at two sites. The overall design flow rate is 4.5 MGD with a peak design flow rate of 9.0 MGD.
Plant No. 1
(located on the west side of Cedar Creek) has a design flow rate of 2.5 MGD and a peak design flow rate of 4.0 MGD.
Plant No. 2
(located on the east side of Cedar Creek) has a design flow rate of 2.0 MGD and a peak design flow rate of 5.0 MDG. Tertiary treatment of the combined secondary wastewater effluent and sludge stabilization is provided for the combined sludge at the Plant #2 site.
Important environmental operations occur at these plant facilities. To better understand the types of treatment conducted at these plants, as well as how the Water Pollution Control Laboratory monitors plant discharges and performs process control testing, download these helpful community resources:
