Boxelder Sanitation District (BSD) received a Gold Peak Performance Award from the National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) for its excellence in permit compliance in 2019. BSD has a clean water discharge permit through the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and had no permit violations in 2019.  It is BSD’s mission to responsibly provide wastewater treatment to protect public health and our Poudre River. The water leaving BSD’s wastewater treatment plant flows immediately into the Boxelder Creek, which flows into the Poudre River.  The District staff operates the treatment plant every day to treat the water to meet or exceed all permit standards assuring compliance.  This award recognizes those efforts.
