Description of Collection System & Treatment Process:
The Town of Taylorsville's Collection System consists of approximately 22 miles of sewer pipe and 22 regularly maintained pump
stations. Domestic sewage flows into an 830,000 gallon per day Treatment Facility where it is properly treated for discharge into
the Lower Little River. The WWTP consists of one micro -screening device for solids removal, INF pumping station for grit removal
and washing units, Lime feed system for pH control, two (2) 415,000 gallon aeration basins for BODS and NH removal, two (2)
45 foot diameter Clarifiers for settling solids, two (2) CL2 chambers for water disinfection, and one (1) SO2 chamber to reduce CL2
levels in treated water. Also, there are four (4) aerobic digester which treat an average of 1.2 million gallons of sludge per year
for land application. Each process operated efficiently throughout this fiscal year. The Effluent has been compliant with state
regulations each month.
