WATER

The City of Valparaiso currently operates the Elden Kuehl Pollution Control Facility (EKPCF), a Class IV (Single Stage Air Activated Sludge) Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). The Plant has an average design flow of 6.0 million gallons per day (mgd) and a peak hydraulic capacity of 9.0 (mgd) with the ability to capture a first flush of 4.5 mgd into 3 combined sewer overflow detention basins (CDTs) during wet weather periods, thus providing the City a total capacity of 13.5 mgd. Current expansion plans will provide a proposed average design flow of 8.0 mgd and a peak flow of 18.0 mgd therefore allowing an additional 9.0 mgd to be treated during wet weather events.

The City is required to operate the IDEM approved Industrial Pretreatment Program. At this time, the pretreatment program regulates 3 Significant Industrial Users (SIUs) through issued industrial wastewater discharge permits. There are approximately 50 additional industrial users not defined as significant which are monitored within the program.
