Introduction

The Crestline Sanitation District (District) was formed in 1946 to provide sewer collection and treatment service to the Lake Gregory area. The Huston Creek Treatment Plant was constructed in 1950 in conjunction with construction of collection systems. The system currently operated by the District includes Pilot Rock, Seeley Creek, Cleghorn treatment plants, and the joint use land outfall along the areas tributary to Silverwood Lake to the reuse sites on the Las Flores Ranch area northwest of Silverwood Lake Dam.  The District presently provides collection, treatment, and redisposal for primarily domestic sewage from four wastewater collection and treatment systems through one common effluent disposal system. 

The District organization is divided into three sections: (1) Operations, (2) Maintenance, and (3) Administration. The Operations staff are responsible for the majority of functions related to operating the District's three wastewater treatment plants and the effluent disposal site. These duties include operational functions as well as light duty maintenance functions (both scheduled and unscheduled). The Maintenance staff within the District are primarily responsible for maintaining the wastewater collection lines, pump station and effluent outfall system. In addition to these duties, maintenance personnel assist plant operators in major maintenance functions. These include, CCTV, sewer inspection, USA line location services, vehicle maintenance, portable mechanical equipment maintenance and instrumentation operations and maintenance. The Administration section maintains records, provides accounting services for the District, collects fees, issues permits, and performs word processing and general office duties.
