Plans are taking shape to upgrade Superior’s Wastewater Treatment Plant to better meet the town’s current needs and to be operated at a lower cost.
“Originally built in 1974, the current plant is suffering aging problems that has resulted in more frequent maintenance,” said Superior Town Manager Todd Pryor. “As the plant is single unit, scheduling downtime for maintenance also has become problematic.”
A recent study indicated that the plant may soon not meet inspection standards set by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality nor safety criteria from the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, thus causing Superior concern.
