Wastewater superintendent reports no overflows in 2024; council to consider 2025 municipal wastewater planning program resolution
Summary
Wastewater Superintendent Eric Bonsoll told council auditors found no permit exceedances or sanitary sewer overflows in 2024, summarized plant performance metrics and presented the required 2025 municipal wastewater planning program resolution for adoption.
Eric Bonsoll, wastewater superintendent, presented the city’s annual municipal wastewater planning program summary to the council and recommended adopting the 2025 resolution required by the Division of Water Quality. Bonsoll reported zero sanitary sewer overflows or bypasses in 2024 and no permit effluent limit exceedances. Key figures included a 2024 average influent flow near 3.1 million gallons per day and robust effluent performance (effluent BOD and TSS values reported in the low milligrams‑per‑liter range). The plant serves Cedar City, Enoch and Iron County with an approximate service population reported in staff materials.
Bonsoll said the pretreatment program actively inspects permitted industrial users and food service establishments and that a February Division of Water Quality audit found no corrective actions. Council members praised staff for operations and cleanliness and asked no follow‑up questions. Bonsoll recommended council adopt the annual municipal wastewater planning program resolution; the item was presented for action as part of the meeting agenda.
