Plant/Process Description:
The City of Santa Cruz has been treating sewage
at the wastewater treatment facility near Neary
Lagoon and disposing of the effluent in the ocean
since 1928. Treatment capacity has been expanded
several times to accommodate the growth of the
city and the addition of flows from the Santa
Cruz County Sanitation District. The current
rated design capacity is 17 MGD (millions of
gallons per day) and with an average daily flow
of 10 MGD. Design for wet weather flow is 81
MGD.
Wastewater treatment and ocean outfall disposal
are provided for the City of Santa Cruz and the
Santa Cruz County Sanitation District (includes
Live Oak, Capitola, Soquel and Aptos). Ocean
outfall disposal is provided for the City of
Scotts Valley.
Wastewater source control provides inspection,
sampling and monitoring of business and
industrial establishments to limit discharge of
harmful constituents into the sanitary sewer
system and storm drain system. Issues wastewater
discharge permits to industrial discharges.
Issues citations and levies fines for code
violations. This program is a requirement of the
State of California and U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency.
