Two aerated lagoons treat the sewage and treated effluent is discharged into the Columbia River. There are plans to upgrade the treatment process within the next couple years. Plans are to install additional fire hydrants in the community and replace about 2,000 feet of water line over the next several years. The community's sewer system serves about 215 customers. An extended aeration activated sludge plant discharges treated effluent to the Columbia River.
Plans are underway to study upgrades to the plant.
Klickitat Water in the community of Klickitat comes from two deep wells, treated at a salt ion exchange softening plant. A replacement well has been drilled and the PUD hopes to get it on-line in the near future to improve water quality. The Klickitat sewer system includes an extended aeration activated sludge plant that serves 162 customers. Treated effluent is discharged into the Klickitat River. In 2000 the PUD plans a needs assessment for the system.
