Ever wonder what happens to water after it leaves your house? Here is your opportunity to find out.

Sewage treatment is an important part of our city's health and ecology infrastructure. Disposing of and treating sewage properly prevents the spread of disease such as cholera.  In addition, sewage plants are now tapped as a source for methane gas which is used to run generators that power the facility.

Come along as we "follow the flow" of sewage as it gets treated in the plant and find out what happens to the end product.
