Composition & Responsibilities

The Water / Wastewater Department consists of 8 employees and operates a 3 MGD surface water plant followed by just over 2 million gallons of storage in 5 tanks at 3 separate locations. We service and maintain approximately 1,850 water connections fed by more than 53 miles of water distribution lines. We service and maintain about 1,600 wastewater customers connected to over 22 miles of gravity flow wastewater collection lines and over 375 manholes. This includes the operation and maintenance of 36 lift stations, followed by a .6 MGD-activated sludge plant. The city has a discharge permit with 210 reuse authorization, which means we beneficially reuse our treated effluent to irrigate 200 acres of hay land.
