Fayetteville Wastewater Treatment Facilities

Welcome!

Welcome to the City of Fayetteville wastewater treatment website.  The links on the navigation bar provide information about the treatment process, industrial pretreatment program, lift stations, and the hay management site.

What We Do

Wastewater treatment is essential to the protection of both human and ecosystem health in the Northwest Arkansas region.  In order to achieve this important task the City of Fayetteville constructed its first wastewater treatment plant in 1969.  In order to meet increasing wastewater demands from a growing population and more stringent permit limits the City upgraded that facility in 1988 and again in 2007.  The Wastewater Division includes the operation and maintenance of the Paul R. Noland Wastewater Treatment Facility and 45 lift stations throughout the city alongside a 670 acre land application site and an Industrial Pretreatment Program.  The City contracted OMI in 1987 for operations and maintenance.        

The City is presently engaged in a large effort to upgrade and improve the entire wastewater collection and treatment system including the addition of a new wastewater facility west of Fayetteville.  For details regarding ongoing improvement projects click here.
