Sangli 100 Ft road Wastewater Treatment Plant, Sangli, Maharashtra

Sangli 100 Ft road is a wastewater treatment plant located in Sangli, Maharashtra, India. It serves a population of approximately 85,252 people, placing it in the medium agglomeration category. The plant is situated in the Krishna River basin, which is a major river system in western India. Although the plant is currently non-operational, Indian wastewater treatment regulations under the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, and the National Green Tribunal guidelines typically require secondary treatment for plants serving this population size. For a population of 85,252, a typical treatment capacity would be around 15-20 million liters per day. The plant's treated effluent would have discharged into local water bodies that eventually drain into the Krishna River, which flows eastward into the Bay of Bengal. The Krishna River supports diverse aquatic life and is an important water source for irrigation and drinking water in the region. The plant's non-operational status may pose risks to local water quality if untreated sewage enters the environment.

The plant is located in the Krishna River basin, one of India's major river systems. The Krishna River originates in the Western Ghats and flows eastward through Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh before emptying into the Bay of Bengal. The river supports a rich diversity of fish species and provides water for agriculture and domestic use. The plant's location inland, over 50 km from the coast, means its discharge would affect freshwater ecosystems rather than marine environments.
