Follow the Flush !

​Have you ever thought of what happens to your waste after you flush? For most residential and business areas in Lewiston/Auburn, waste travels through a series of pipes to a wastewater (sewage) treatment facility. L/A Clean Water Authority has been upgrading their facilities to improve treatment and manage high levels of flow every minute of every day. You may have noticed a large structure that’s been built over the past year on Lincoln Street. That is there to protect overflow into the Androscoggin River during heavy rain events!
This event is hosted by the Androscoggin River Watershed Council and Androscoggin Valley Soil & Water Conservation District.
