Wastewater Collection

Wastewater Collection is responsible for the operation and maintenance of the underground gravity collection system and the force main piping systems that receive and transmit wastewater discharged from homes and businesses to the Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant.  Facilities include 355 miles of gravity and force mains, 20,972 service laterals, and approximately 4,975 manholes.  Programs include preventive maintenance, chemical applications, root control, cleaning, and closed circuit television inspections of gravity sewer mains. The Industrial Pretreatment Program monitors all discharges from commercial and industrial users into the public sanitary sewer system.  The utility locating crew provides support for utility locations reducing the potential for service interruptions resulting from construction activities.  The division also provides for the operation and maintenance of the reclaimed water system.  Assistance is provided to other departments requiring water and/or sewer related needs.
