Naples V STP - Projected Secondary Wastewater Treatment Plant in Village of Naples, New York

Naples V STP is a projected wastewater treatment plant located in the Village of Naples, Ontario County, New York. The plant is designed to serve a population of 1,300, reflecting the scale of a small community in the Finger Lakes region. As a projected facility, it represents planned infrastructure to meet local wastewater management needs. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard level required under the US Clean Water Act for municipal wastewater. Secondary treatment typically involves biological processes to remove organic matter and suspended solids. The plant's designed capacity of 416.39 units and discharge volume of 416.40 units indicate a facility sized for the local population. The treated effluent from Naples V STP is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into Canandaigua Lake, one of the Finger Lakes. This lake is a critical water resource for recreation, drinking water, and aquatic habitat. The plant's operation will help protect water quality in the lake and downstream ecosystems, including the Seneca River and Lake Ontario.

Naples V STP discharges into the Canandaigua Lake watershed, part of the Finger Lakes region in New York. The lake supports diverse aquatic life and is a source of drinking water for surrounding communities. Downstream, waters flow through the Seneca River into Lake Ontario, a major Great Lake with significant ecological and economic importance. Protecting this chain of water bodies from nutrient pollution is essential for maintaining water quality and ecosystem health.
