wastewater systems

Municipal effluent networks

Wastewater systems are the infrastructure networks that collect, transport, and treat sewage and other liquid waste from homes, businesses, and industries.

These systems typically include sewer lines, pumping stations, and treatment plants that process contaminated water before releasing it back into the environment.

The city is upgrading its aging wastewater systems to prevent overflow during storms.
