From the 2024 calendar year, Peak Performance Awards recognize public utility members for excellence in permit compliance and their operations. Under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit program, SacSewer said facilities must maintain a perfect record with zero permit violations within the calendar year.
“Our vision is to set the bar for excellence in utility management and environmental sustainability, and these awards demonstrate our ongoing responsibility to serve our community by protecting public health and the environment,” SacSewer General Manager Christoph Dobson said. “We are proud of what we accomplish at the EchoWater Facility, and this is a testament to the dedication and hard work our staff put forth every single day.”
This was the fifth Gold Award the EchoWater facility received from the National Association of Clean Water Agencies, also winning 16 Silver Awards in a span of the last 30 years, according to officials.
