Shelby’s Waste Water Treatment Plant is located on London West Rd. north of the city.  

887,365,000 gallons were treated in 2007.  All waste is decomposed biologically.  The only chemicals added are chlorine to kill disease-causing bacteria and sodium bisulfite to remove the chlorine before the final effluent from the plant is discharged.  The wastewater is monitored continuously for a variety of parameters to ensure that no stream degradation will occur.  

Superintendent Gary Bail and 4 other operators work daily to keep your streams and rivers clean and to maintain an EPA-certified waste water treatment plant.
