With many Florida and southeastern US utilities impacted by either or both Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, readers were following wastewater blog posts that looked at how storms and flooding can lead to interrupted or lost power at facilities, high levels of grit or debris in systems, and overloaded storm sewers and wastewater treatment infrastructure. Read more about the problems hurricanes bring to water systems here and about how proprietary technology offered by SediVision can make dealing with these challenges easier.

Part 7 of the USST Wastewater Workplace Safety Series examined “accountability for our decisions and actions” in the wastewater industry work environment. Authored by Denver J. Stutler, PE, in the blog, Denver explains, “Accountability is never about being right. Accountability is about achieving the right results for your teams, your company, and the clients you serve. Accountability is about getting it right.” You can read this thought leadership content relevant to workers and their leaders in all professions here.
Read this case study that examines how the Cedar Creek Water Quality Treatment Center (CCWQTC), part of the Louisville Municipal Sewer District (MSD), had a concentric channel oxidation ditch that had not been cleaned in over 10 (ten) years. You’ll see how informed data developed by mapping and quantifying the debris in the oxidation ditches positioned them to make strategic and successful maintenance decisions.
