The Wastewater department is responsible for the treatment of wastewater, including maintenance of the plant and pump stations.
We use an activated sludge process plant with extended aeration mode.
The main lift station has three 100 hp pumps that push the daily
average flow of 1.2 mgd to the City Farm. At the farm, there are two
aerated lagoons in a series with one storage pond. Lagoons have a total
capacity of 160 MG of treated effluent water prior to irrigation. Our
goal is to remove all contaminants from the water before returning it
to the environment
