Wastewater (Sewer)

Grand Island's Wastewater Treatment plant helps keep our community healthy, clean and comfortable. Dealing with wastewater may not be a pretty topic, but we provide a crucial service that benefits every person, every home, every business, and the environment of Grand Island. We protect community health by controlling where waste goes, and by treating and disinfecting waste.
