Last week, we met with Fairhaven DPW Superintendent Vincent Furtado and made it our business to learn more about the business of … your business and its journey from the toilet to the Fairhaven Wastewater Treatment Facility on Arsene Street in Fairhaven and out to New Bedford Harbor. Some 1,780 Mattapoisett residents receive municipal sewer service from the Fairhaven facility. Photo by Jean PerryJan 20, 2016

Waste Water Treatment286 viewsIn the aeration basins, water is bubbled and oxygenated, and bacteria are introduced into the mix to break down remaining suspended solids until it’s 90% clear. The water is disinfected with UV light before being discharged to an outfall point at the intersection of Main and Church Streets in Fairhaven into New Bedford Harbor. (Hopefully that lifesaver has never been needed.)Jan 20, 2016
