The plant serves a small community of about 1,000 residents, providing essential sanitation services for the area. The facility operates at the secondary treatment level, which is the standard required by the US Clean Water Act for municipal plants. With a designed capacity of 946.35 cubic meters per day, it processes a similar volume of wastewater daily. As a small-scale plant, it falls under the regulatory oversight of the Indiana Department of Environmental Management, which issues National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits to ensure compliance with water quality standards. The treated effluent from Campbell Township RSD is discharged into local streams that drain into the Muscatatuck River, a tributary of the East Fork White River, which ultimately flows into the Ohio River and then the Mississippi River. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and provides habitat for fish and other species. The plant's operations help protect downstream water quality in this inland river system.

The plant discharges into local waterways that flow into the Muscatatuck River, part of the Ohio River basin. The downstream environment includes the East Fork White River and the Ohio River, which support diverse fish populations and are important for regional biodiversity. The area is predominantly agricultural, and the plant's secondary treatment helps reduce nutrient loading into these sensitive river systems.
