Our team coordinated with the NYSDEC to renew the SPDES permit and created an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Manual for the lagoon and land application system at Camp Emunah, an overnight summer camp for Jewish girls in the Catskill Mountains in the Town of Wawarsing, NY.
The camp uses its own wastewater treatment plant to collect and treat wastewater from the camp facility and associated buildings. The treatment plant consists of a facultative lagoon system, where treated wastewater is land applied each spring after being held through the fall and winter months. The SPDES permit for the facility was obtained many years ago, and each year the plant is re-inspected by the NYSDEC to confirm the facility continues to meet conditions specified in the permit and observe the facility’s general condition.
