The
Village of New Athens owns and operates facilities for the collection and
treatment of all domestic and industrial wastewater.
The treatment plant is located at 2515
River Road in New Athens. The
collection system consists of gravity lines and a series of three pump
stations. The service area of the
collections system extends beyond the corporate boundaries. The
wastewater treatment plant has a design capacity of 300,000 gallons per day
with a peak flow of 750,000 gallon per day.
The present average daily flow is 140,000 leaving adequate excess
capacity available for industrial clients and future residential growth. Billing Information On or near the first day of each month, a bill will
be delivered by first class mail, to all customers of the Department, for
those services used during the preceding month. This bill will be due on
receipt and may be paid by the 15th of the month following delivery of
service without penalty. This bill
will become overdue on the 16th of the month following delivery of services,
at which time a 10% penalty will be added to any outstanding balance. Any customer with an outstanding balance on
the 21st of the month following delivery of services, will be sent a “FINAL
NOTICE PRIOR TO DISCONNECT”, by first class mail, to the address where the
service is connected, indicating the last day to pay the bill prior to
terminating services. Any customer
with an outstanding balance on the 28th of the month following deliver of
services, will be terminated without further notice. Any customer who has had their utility
service terminated for non-payment, will be subject to re-connecting fees. The amount
due for sewer usage is determined from metered readings of actual water used during
the period. Residential in-town sewer tap-in inspection fees are $250.00. This fee will provide for the inspection of
the sewer tap made by the contractor provided to the property owner. All labor and materials for the connection
to the sewer are the responsibility of the property owner.
Out-of-town tap-in inspection fees are higher. To apply for sewer service
or to obtain additional information, please stop by the Village Hall, 905
Spotsylvania Street or call 618-475-2144 during normal business hours. |
