Daleville Westside WWTP - Advanced Treatment Plant in Daleville, Alabama

Daleville Westside WWTP is a municipal wastewater treatment facility located on Hickory Tree Lane in Daleville, Dale County, Alabama. The plant serves a population of approximately 2,200 residents, operating as part of the region's wastewater infrastructure. The facility employs advanced treatment processes, exceeding the secondary treatment standard required by the US Clean Water Act. With a designed capacity of 1,892.70 thousand gallons per day and a current discharge volume of 738.16 thousand gallons per day, the plant operates well below its capacity, indicating room for future growth. As a US facility, it operates under an EPA NPDES permit issued by the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, ensuring compliance with federal and state water quality standards. The treated effluent is discharged into local streams that flow into the Choctawhatchee River watershed, ultimately reaching the Gulf of Mexico. The plant plays a key role in protecting downstream aquatic ecosystems and maintaining water quality in the region's coastal drainage basin.

The plant discharges into tributaries of the Choctawhatchee River, which flows south through Alabama and Florida into the Gulf of Mexico. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life, including fish and freshwater mussels, and is an important migratory corridor for birds. The advanced treatment helps minimize nutrient loading and protects downstream estuarine habitats.
