SPARTA WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY AND SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS

Construction of a replacement of the Sparta Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF) is financed by the Water Pollution Control State Revolving Fund (SRF). The SRF program is administered by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and receives portion of its money to fund these types of projects from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This project includes sanitary sewer system improvements as well as construction of a new wastewater treatment facility consisting of a headworks with grit removal, an oxidation ditch, two clarifiers, a sludge pump station, sludge digesters, sludge handling facilities and lab building. Once complete, it will improve water quality in the environment for area residents and businesses in Sparta by improving the discharge quality from the wastewater treatment facility. SRF programs operate in each state to provide communities the resources necessary to build, maintain and improve the infrastructure that protects one of our most valuable resources: water.
