چکیده
Mission To safely collect and treat wastewater in compliance with all regulatory requirements using state‐of‐the‐ art technology in the most cost‐effective manner in order to improve the environment and enhance the quality of life in Fairfax County. Focus The Wastewater Management Program includes wastewater collection and conveyance, wastewater treatment, and planning and monitoring program areas. The primary functions are to strategically plan, and efficiently operate and maintain the wastewater system in the best interest of the County and its customers. Funding for Fund 69010, Sewer Operation and Maintenance, is financed by a transfer from Fund 69000, Sewer Revenue, which is used to credit all system revenues collected, including availability fees and sewer service charges associated with the program. This program operates and maintains nearly 3,430 miles of sewer, 63 pump stations and 57 flow‐metering stations. Treatment of wastewater generated is provided primarily through six regional wastewater collection and treatment plants. The regional treatment approach takes advantage of economies of scale in wastewater treatment and ensures the economical and efficient operation and management of the program. One of the six regional plants is the County owned and operated Noman M. Cole, Jr. Pollution Control Plant (NCPCP), which is currently permitted to treat 67 million gallons per day (mgd) of flow. Other regional facilities where the County has purchased treatment capacity include the District of Columbia Waterʹs Blue Plains Treatment Plant with 31 mgd capacity; Alexandria Renew Enterprises Treatment Plant with 32.4 mgd capacity; Upper Occoquan Service Authorityʹs Treatment Plant with 22.6 mgd capacity; Arlington Countyʹs Treatment Plant with 3 mgd capacity; and Loudoun Water’s Broad Run Plant with 1 mgd capacity. Fairfax County utilizes all of these facilities to accommodate a total capacity of 157 mgd. Photo of the Noman M. Cole, Jr. Pollution Control Plant
