WASTEWATER DEPARTMENT

Hours: Monday - Thursday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Services: The City of Denham Springs’ wastewater department provides services to 5,620 customers located within the city limits of Denham Springs and 2,700 customers in Denham Springs Sewerage District #1 located south of the city.

The City has a state-of-the-art, award-winning wastewater treatment facility with a design flow capacity of four million gallons per day and a maximum flow capacity of six million gallons per day. The plant utilizes the activated sludge oxidation ditch technology with nutrient removal, tertiary treatment, exceptional quality sludge processes, disinfection, post aeration, odor control, high flow retention capability, and back-up diesel generators.

By utilizing exceptional quality sludge, the City of Denham Springs is being proactive in enhancing recycling and eliminating wastes being sent to area landfills. A portion of our final water discharge will be used for irrigation purposes at a nearby golf course.

The City has 60 lift stations moving sewer throughout the city to the wastewater treatment facility.

Our goal is to be proactive in the treatment of wastewater, encouraging and inspiring others to do the same.
