The Great Falls Water Treatment Plant (WTP) treats surface water from the Missouri River via conventional flocculation, sedimentation, and filtration treatment process. Residual solids, generally referred to as sludge, are generated from the primary/secondary clarification basins and clarification of filter backwash during the water treatment process. Currently, sludge is handled by either immediate discharge to the Wastewater Treatment Plant or onsite storage and thickening ponds.
