Waste Water Treatment Plant
The Town of Bucksport operates a wastewater treatment facility located at 205 US Route 1, which is licensed for primary wastewater treatment but does not currently provide secondary treatment. The facility processes an annual average flow of approximately 110 million gallons, accepting wastewater from Bucksport, Orland, and Verona Island, and is equipped with multiple pump stations and a swirl concentrator for stormwater overflow management.
At the treatment plant, influent sewage is treated using a polymer to aid in solid settling, followed by clarification and dewatering processes. The treated effluent is disinfected with sodium hypochlorite before being dechlorinated and discharged into the Penobscot River, ensuring compliance with environmental standards.
