LOMIRA WWTP - Lomira, Wisconsin Wastewater Treatment Plant

LOMIRA WWTP is a municipal wastewater treatment facility located in Lomira, Wisconsin, serving a population of approximately 2,627 residents. The plant is situated in Dodge County and operates as part of the village's public infrastructure. With a designed capacity of 1.00 million gallons per day, the facility manages domestic wastewater from the community. As a US-based plant, LOMIRA WWTP operates under the Clean Water Act and is subject to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits issued by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. For a small agglomeration of this size, secondary treatment is typically required to meet effluent standards. The plant's treatment process and operational status are consistent with standard municipal practices for communities of this scale. The treated effluent from LOMIRA WWTP is discharged to a local waterway within the Lake Michigan basin. The receiving water body ultimately drains into Lake Michigan, a major freshwater resource that supports diverse aquatic life and provides drinking water for millions. The plant plays a key role in protecting downstream water quality and the ecological health of the region.

LOMIRA WWTP discharges into a tributary of the Rock River, which flows southward into the Mississippi River and eventually to the Gulf of Mexico. The local watershed supports agricultural and residential land uses, and the plant's effluent must meet standards to protect aquatic habitats. The downstream environment includes sensitive ecosystems that rely on clean water for fish and wildlife.
