Victor WWTP - Hollywood, Colorado Wastewater Treatment Plant

Victor WWTP is a municipal wastewater treatment facility located in Hollywood, Teller County, Colorado, United States. The plant serves a small population of 450 residents, reflecting its role in a rural or small community setting within the Rocky Mountain region. The facility provides secondary treatment, which is the standard biological treatment process required under the U.S. Clean Water Act for most municipal plants. With a designed capacity of 329.33 megaliters and an actual discharge volume of 151.42 megaliters, the plant operates well below its capacity, indicating room for future growth or seasonal variability. The treated effluent is discharged into a local waterway that ultimately drains into the Arkansas River basin. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is an important water resource for the semi-arid region of southern Colorado. The plant's operations are regulated under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program to protect downstream water quality.

The plant discharges into a tributary of the Arkansas River, which flows through the Rocky Mountains and across the Great Plains before joining the Mississippi River system. The local watershed supports cold-water fisheries and provides irrigation water for agriculture. Protecting water quality in this basin is critical for maintaining ecosystem health and regional water supplies.
