The Solution
NSU designed, built, and operates a wastewater treatment plant serving a transit-oriented residential development, situated adjacent to the Lakeville/Middleborough MBTA commuter rail station. The 39,000 GPD single train facility, was sized to serve 192 apartment and condominium units. Membrane bioreactors are housed in compact 42’ x 32’ Building. Effluent is dispersed by means of open sand beds in compliance with the facility’s ground water discharge permit. Major effluent limits are: 30mg /L BOD; 10mg/L TSS; 10mg/L Total Nitrogen. NSU has operated this system since it was completed in 2009.
