Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations Unit

The City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant treats collected wastewater (sewage) to safely discharge it into surface waters like Old River. The plant removes solids and pollutants, breaks down organic matter, and restores the oxygen content of the treated wastewater. The City treats wastewater to a more stringent standard so that the highly treated water can be used as recycled water for landscape irrigation and dust control at construction sites.

The Wastewater Treatment Plant continues to make significant improvements to increase capacity, keeping pace with the city's growing community.

Additional Services 

The City provides oversight for both pre-treament of Wastewater and the Stanitary Sewer Collections system.
