Taken May 2016
Blue Lake Wastewater Treatment Plant in Savage, Minnesota, is shown from above with a series of circular clarifiers used in the treatment process. Operated by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services, the facility handles sewage from communities in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metropolitan area, including Shakopee. These settling basins are part of the plant’s primary and secondary treatment system, where solids are separated from wastewater before further processing and discharge.
