Abstract

The Missouri American Water Company Central Water Treatment Plant supplies an average of 99.5 million gallons per day of potable water to customers in St. Louis and St. Charles County, Missouri. The Plant withdraws surface water from the Missouri River and returns treatment residuals to the river in accordance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit. During periods of low flow, the return of treatment results in discoloration in the Missouri River. Geosyntec and CMT worked with Missouri American Water Company to optimally relocate the discharge of treatment residuals that will diminish the discoloration in the Missouri River. Project components included receiving stream and effluent hydrological modeling, construction and operation and maintenance considerations, flooding and erosion protection, and permitting of the construction project with local, state, and federal agencies.
