Mankato Continues Platinum Certification

Congratulations to the City of Mankato Wastewater Treatment Facility in Mankato, MN.  According to the auditor, the “use of a management system approach continues to generate positive outcomes for the City of Mankato’s biosolids program in the areas of regulatory compliance, environmental performance, quality practices and relations with interested parties.”

Within the past 2 years, in the area of environmental performance, the facility has saved an estimated $3,000,000 in potable water reuse through generation of reuse water from the WRRF.  In the area of quality practices, biosolids users have noted improved spreading in recent years and lower odors.

The facility has increased the number of plant tours and outreach to interested parties.
