This project was jointly funded through a low-interest loan of approximately $2,750,000 from the Department of Environmental Quality Clean Water State Revolving Fund (DEQ-CWSRF) program and a $108,000 grant from the Economic Development Administration. The project consisted of installing a fine bubble aeration system within the existing primary lagoon, installing an 80' diameter clarifier wiithin a pre-stressed concrete tank, and installing a cloth media filter. The project also included the rehabilitation of two in-plant lift stations and two lift stations within the City of Oakdale's collection system. The renovations to the in-plant lift stations included pump replacement and miscellaneous electrical work, as well as minor renovations to the wet wells.
