Wastewater Treatment
The City of McCleary constructed a new wastewater treatment plant in 2005 replacing an aging trickling filter plant. The plant is now capable of handling 330,000 gallons in an average day.
The new plant uses sequencing batch reactors for secondary treatment and ultra violet light for disinfection. An effluent chiller was included in the construction. When necessary in the summer time, a portion of the effluent can be cooled through a heat exchanger connected to a closed loop cooling system
