the facultative lagoon is when flows exceed 500K. All wastewater flow under 500K, flows to the plant south of
town (NC0082597) that has been closed and turned into a pump station that sendswastewater to the N. Harnett
Regionalplant in. Lillington. Angier executed a agreement to send all flow to the North Harnett regional
wastewater treatment plant in 2010/2011.
