General Manager Clemens Heldmaier presents on history, engineering and financials.
MSWD Strategic Discussion Sewer: Treatment & Environmental Protection in 2021 and Next 10 to 50 Years
A few notes:
- Agency formed in 1958 by the County to manage Montara and Moss Beach sewage.
- Shortly after the formation MSWD, the County decided their dump site was going to go into Gray Whale Cove. The MSWD board stoped them.
- Water service was added in 2003 following purchase of privately owned, poorly managed water system.
- The current Sewer Authority Mid-Coastside (SAM) plant between 1979 and 1983.
- Ocean outfall pipe 2,000 foot from shore, 37 feet deep.
- No ocean outfalls allowed? Zero discharge legislative plans on horizon?
