\"\"Fond du Lac Regional Wastewater Treatment & Resource Recovery Facility<\/h5>\n

The Fond du Lac Regional Wastewater Treatment & Resource Recovery Facility serves the City of Fond du Lac and eighteen neighboring communities. Every day the wastewater treatment plant treats approximately 8-10 million gallons of wastewater in order to protect public health and the environment.<\/p>\n

The 2008 project was the fifth major project on the current site including projects in 1927, 1949, 1964, and 1975. Elements of 1949, 1964, and 1975 facilities were reused to provide added features at little or no cost.<\/p>\n

Facilities from the 1949 plant as well as the 1974 plant were retained to provide additional treatment capacity for abnormally high flows at a low cost to system users. These facilities provide the necessary treatment to comply with permit requirements.\u00a0 Digestion facilities originally constructed in 1964 were recommissioned with the 2008 project to provide biosolids digestion and storage.<\/p>\n<\/div>
