The Eastside Wastewater Treatment Plant (East Plant) processes combined sewer flows from East Bremerton during wet weather periods when the volume of combined sewage exceeds the capacity of the downstream sewage conveyance system. Constructed in 2001, the UV disinfection equipment has reached its useful life and is no longer reliable due to becoming obsolete since replacement parts are no longer manufactured. This project replaces the old equipment with new, more efficient, and reliable equipment. The purpose of this project is to upgrade the disinfection equipment. The benefits of this project are the protection of water quality from the discharge of untreated combined sewer.
