BACKGROUND
The Stansbury Park Improvement District's lagoon treatment facility consists of 7 facultative cells, 2 primaries, 5 secondary, and one additional emergency overflow pond. The facility serves the City of Stansbury Park, with a current population of about 8,500. The design flow was 1 million gallons a day (MGD) with an operational flow of 0.75 MGD. The facility has completed a major upgrade to meet future demands for treatment. The upgraded final design flow is 2.7 MGD, but the flow limit will remain 1.5 MGD for the near future. The proposed permit modification extends the current permit Compliance Schedule described in the modified Fact Sheet and draft Permit.
