Go to the City Council meetings, get involved, speak at the public comments. It is your tax and fee dollars paying for these continual waste water systems upgrades. The Councilors work for you!?
While Coos Bay waste water plants suffers financially a continuum of changes, upgrades, and now a planned complete rebuild of # 2, and an upgrade of # 1, starting in several years,
most of the council, thinks they are locked into a decision on plant # 2, where they are feeling “we must go with the current plan” Complete new plant. Spend another 28 million, put the plant in a residential area, continuing dumping in the Bay, and process the sludge, class B, by spreading on fields in the area.
Simply put, there is only one plant necessary for the whole region, Coos Bay, North Bend. That single plant would be dispersing treated sewer outflow into the Ocean providing greater dispersal. While the current three, single point source discharges from current plants, into the Coos River/Bay ecosystem provides nothing more than dumping into a polluted bathtub with poor drainage.
Spending any more monies toward continuing the duplication of this network, is poor money following bad ideas. In a perfect world, a plant would be established on the North Spit and the plant # 2, Empire geography sewer area would go to that plant. Then instead of upgrading Plant # 1, it is piped to the North spit plant, and #1 is deactivated and removed. Sludge pipes from #2 to #1 are part of current plan. Made larger, sewage could be directed to plant #2 location, and on to the North Spit.
Understanding, that the North Spit Plant initial design can be large enough to handle Plant #2 and #1, and expandable, at reasonable cost. An outflow into the Ocean has to be constructed. Plant design must meet anticipated Environment Protection Agency, EPA standards, current and into the future for Virus and Pathogen elimination or reduction. Dispersing into Salt water will be part of that solution.
Sludge, resulting from sewage processing can be collected and standardized into Class A fertilizer.
