MONTHLY DISCHARGE
MONITORING REPORTS
The United States Environmental Protection Agency requires all
wastewater treatment systems to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit from their state regulatory agency
for discharging treated effluent to state waters. The Alabama Department
of Environmental Management (ADEM) issues our permits that contain
limits on our effluent parameters. The parameter results are reported
monthly to ADEM on a Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR). ADEM evaluates
each treatment plant independently when determining effluent parameters
and limits by considering the assimilative capacity of the plant effluent's
receiving stream.
Mobile Area Water & Sewer System's latest Discharge Monitoring
Reports (DMR)are available in PDF *** format. Download them directly
from here.

BIOSOLIDS PROGRAM
Biosolids is the term used for treated solids from a wastewater treatment
plant. MAWSS has been involved in a Biosolids land application program
since 1988. The biosolids undergo a treatment process that is regulated
by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to stabilize
the organic volatile solids and to reduce vector attraction. The farmlands
that accept the biosolids are permitted by the USEPA to assure proper
application location and rates. The biosolids are applied to pasture
lands in liquid form for it's nutrient value. Biosolids are also a
good soil conditioner.
