The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is seeking comment on a draft reuse permit renewal (M-208-04) for the City of Tetonia Wastewater Treatment Facility.
The City of Tetonia owns and operates a public municipal Class I wastewater collections system and treatment plant and Class C reuse facility that applies recycled water to agricultural land. The facility is located ½ mile west of Tetonia and ¼ mile north of W 6000 Ave. The plant’s influent is treated into recycled water and used to irrigate 42 acres of alfalfa or grass hay during the growing season.
The draft reuse permit establishes monitoring requirements, limits on nutrient and hydraulic loading, and conditions established by DEQ to protect public health and the environment. As part of the permitting process, the facility was also required to show that its operation would not cause public health or environmental concerns.
Written comments on the draft permit will be accepted through October 5, at 5 p.m. Mountain Time. The draft permit and staff analysis are available for public review at DEQ’s State Office (1410 N. Hilton St.), DEQ’s Idaho Falls Regional Office (900 N. Skyline Drive, Ste. B, Idaho Falls, ID 83402 and below under related documents.
