Objectives | City of Nevada City (Discharger) provides sewerage service for the City of Nevada City, which has a population of approximately 3,000. The WWTP design average dry weather flow capacity is 0.69 mgd. The treatment system consists of grit removal, comminution, biological treatment in sequencing batch reactors, sand filtration, pH adjustment, and chlorination/dechlorination. Sludge is treated in an aerobic digester, dewatered by a belt filter press, and hauled to the Redwood landfill in Navato. Treated wastewater is discharged into Deer Creek, which flows into Lake Wildwood prior to being discharged downstream to the lower reaches of Deer Creek and the Yuba River. |
