Ten Mile Creek Regional Wastewater System
The Ten Mile Creek Regional Wastewater System is a 24 MGD activated sludge treatment plant on a 100-acre site near Ferris; it provides regional wastewater transportation* and treatment services to all or portions of six cities. The treatment plant consists of wet-weather storage screening facilities, grit removal, three activated sludge treatment trains, tertiary treatment with ultraviolet disinfection, and a solids dewatering facility. Following dewatering, the biosolids are disposed of in an off-site municipal landfill. The system also provides treated effluent for irrigation under a Type II water reuse authorization from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
The system has received multiple platinum, gold and silver awards from the National Association of Clean Water Agencies for compliance with the stringent parameters of its wastewater discharge permit.
*Transportation denotes the movement of wastewater through pipes from customer cities to the treatment plant.
