After months of repair work following historic flooding in December 2015, the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD) says operations at the Fenton Wastewater Treatment Plant are fully restored.
From the MSD website: MSD crews and contractors have restored the full wastewater treatment process at the Fenton Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) that is required during the recreation season from April 1- October 31. This includes the re-establishment of wastewater disinfection using ultraviolet light. With the restoration of full treatment, the Fenton WWTP again meets regulatory standards. As a result, the recreation advisory for the Meramec River has been lifted. MSD crews are in the process of removing signs. Find more information HERE.
