Monster Clears Clogs And Streamlines Septage Delivery At Ventura Regional Sanitation District

By Kevin Bates, JWC Environmental

The Ventura Regional Sanitation District’s Liquid Waste Treatment Facility (LWTF) was experiencing a double-threat to safety and productivity. The facility’s pumps, pipes and tank bottoms were continually clogging and breaking down because of ‘mopheads’ — rags that knot together and form rope-like pieces —and requiring additional maintenance and downtime to undo the problem. Meanwhile, septage delivery tank drivers had the unpleasant task of emptying the sewage from their trucks onto a parallel bar grate over the facilities’ receiving pit, which they then had to scrape clean with a bow rake. This job was also time-consuming for the drivers. Thankfully, JWC Environmental had one solution that solved both these problems – a Honey Monster™ Septage Receiving System.
