WATER TREATMENT PLANT

The City’s Water Treatment Plant treats water from two surface sources and has a capacity of 2.75 MGD. Treatment consists of rapid sand filter systems, and additions of lime and the coagulant Nalco Utrion, with chlorination and flouridation. In early 1992, improvements to the facility, including construction of a new clearwell, were completed. Sludge management improvements were constructed in 1995.

The City’s Water Treatment Plant produces approximately 2 MGD of potable water daily. A series of wells supplement the water produced at the City’s Water Treatment Plant to insure the needs of users are met. The Carfaro Well came online in 2000 and the Roop’s Mill Well came online on an emergency basis during the Summer of 2002.

Bret Grossnickle is the Superintendent of the Water Treatment Plant. He can be contacted via email or by phone at 410-848-7040.
