Wastewater Management, part of Public Works Environmental Services, operates two wastewater treatment plants, cleans billions of gallons of wastewater each year and maintains more than 700 miles of sewer pipe.

The water that leaves your homes through sinks, showers and toilets flows through sewer pipe to a wastewater treatment plant where it is treated before being released into Commencement Bay.
