WASTEWATER
GCSD’s sewer system consists of 16 lift stations, 7 miles of force main, and 35 miles of gravity lines, which serve about 1,500 customers. All the lift stations are located in Pine Mountain Lake, except lift station 16, which serves Big Oak Flat.
The District has one sewer treatment plant, consisting of primary and secondary treatment. Onsite facilities consist of a mechanical shop, laboratory, and offices. There are two reclaimed water storage reservoirs. Reservoir #1 has a storage volume of about 12 acre-feet. Reservoir #2 has a storage volume of about 100 acre-feet. Pine Mountain Lake Golf Course operates a small reservoir that blends a portion of the District’s effluent with lake water for irrigation purposes. The remainder of the District’s reclaimed water is disposed of on 14+ acres of spray fields on District property.
