Pretreatment

The pretreatment department permits and monitors businesses and industries who discharge to our facility to ensure that they do not send us anything that might be harmful to the treatment plant, the treatment process, or pass through the plant and have detrimental affect on the environment. 

Pretreatment also manages a Surcharge Program which monitors waste discharges from businesses and charges them fees when they exceed benchmarks to cover the cost of additional treatment .
