Solids are wasted conventionally to an aerated sludge holding tank. Most of the
water/solids separation is gravitational, in that very little actual digestion of solids occurs.
However, since May 2001 to present, approximately 2000 to 4000 gallons per month
have been hauled away from this site. Forsyth Rotor is our contract sludge hauler,
ultimately disposing of our sludge in the Archie Elledge Wastewater Treatment Plant on
