Lower Perkiomen Valley Sewer Authority Recognized for Excellence

The Lower Perkiomen Valley Regional Sewer Authority in Montgomery County received the Pretreatment Excellence Award from the Eastern Pennsylvania Water Pollution Control Operators Association.

The award recognized the Authority as the owner and operator of the Oaks Wastewater Treatment Plant for achieving, for four years in a row, the best rating for pretreatment as measured by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 3.

Pretreatment processes are used to reduce, eliminate, or alter the nature of wastewater pollutants from non-domestic sources before they are discharged into publicly owned treatment works.
