The JSSDWRF facility was built in 2008 to serve the future developments in the areas of the Jordanelle Reservoir and north of Heber City in Wasatch County, Utah. JSSDWRF only recently began operating and discharging in September of 2020 after remaining idled since new in 2008. The JSSDWRF treatment system consists of the following process; raw influent enters the facility and passes through fine screens, and then through a series of anaerobic and aerobic tanks (as a biological aid in the removal of phosphorous), then through a membrane bio-reactor (which includes the addition of alum and/or other chemical treatment for further phosphorous removal), and finally through an ultra violet (UV) disinfection system before discharging via the permitted Outfalls. The JSSDWRF solids waste handling consists of an aerated solids handling basin and belt press for dewatering with all biosolids sent to an approved off-site disposal facility. This permit will once again authorize effluent discharges from JSSDWRF during the next five years as appropriate. For additional information, please refer to the draft Permit and fact sheet documents.
