A wastewater treatment plant tour is a unique (and fun!) thing to do in Madison as a fieldtrip with the kids or an interesting date idea.
Intense storm events can test the capacity limits of the system and plant, so we've begun developing the Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) Reduction Program.
Running a wastewater treatment plant requires constant vigilance and attention that wouldn’t be possible without our staff of night operators.
We focus on Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) to ensure we provide a high level of service to fulfill our mission well into the future.
Summer internships are an excellent opportunity for students to gain valuable experiences while making an impact in our local communities.
