The plant discharges into streams within the Cape Fear River basin, which flows through North Carolina to the Atlantic Ocean. The downstream environment supports diverse aquatic life, including fish and macroinvertebrates, and provides habitat for migratory species. Advanced treatment helps reduce nutrient loading and protects water quality in this ecologically sensitive watershed.
