| The
District's collection system is the network of underground pipes,
manholes and pumping stations used to collect wastewater from
businesses and residences. Once the wastewater has entered the
collection system, this network transports it to either CTRWD's
Michigan Road Wastewater
Treatment Plant or to the City of Carmel Wastewater Treatment
Plant near 96th Street and Hazel Dell Parkway where CTRWD owns
reserved capacity. |
| |
| The
system has been under almost continuous
expansion since the District was formed, primarily due to the
explosive real estate market demand over the last decade for
residential and commercial development in the southern part of
Hamilton County. |
| |
| The
network is monitored through a SCADA (telemetry) system and allows remote access for
monitoring and controlling system functions at lift stations and the
District's treatment plant. The infrastructure is maintained with
the help of an asset & work management software program provided by
CarteGraph. |
