Elliott West Wet Weather Treatment Station upgrade
King County is planning to upgrade the Elliott West Wet Weather Treatment Station (EWWTS). The upgrade will ensure compliance with stricter environmental regulations, meet the demands of a growing population, and handle a changing climate.
Project description
The Elliott West Wet Weather Treatment Station (EWWTS) is a combined sewer overflow (CSO) facility that was first completed in 2005. Since then, it has stored and treated sewage and stormwater during periods of heavy rain. EWWTS now needs to be upgraded to meet stricter environmental standards and to adapt to changing climate.
This project will ensure that the upgraded facility meets its permit requirements. This is a major investment to ensure King County continues to protect public health and the environment for years to come.
More information about the upgrade plans will be available this summer and fall. To stay updated, subscribe to our email list.
