Wastewater Treatment Division
The Wastewater Treatment Division is operated by Operations Management International, Inc. (OMI), a private contractor. This relieves the city of the burden of the waste treatment operation and makes available, if needed, experts in the many facets of wastewater treatment.

- The treated wastewater is land applied to 2500-2800 acres of farm ground.
- The plant has won numerous awards from KDHE & EPA
