Natural Wastewater Treatment System Workshop
(click on flyer to enlarge)
 
For many small communities, natural treatment systems are a viable, low-cost, effective means of treating wastewater. A properly constructed treatment system that is designed to work with the local topography has many advantages including: a high level of treatment, low operational expenses, low construction costs, reduced or eliminated odor problems, handling of varying wastewater loadings, reduced land costs for land application of wastewater, aesthetic appeal, and providing wildlife habitat.  
 
Join Lincoln Hills RC&D and The Nature Conservancy at the 2010 Natural Treatment System workshop and find out if natural treatment systems are right for you and your community!
