A Planning Document
The Wastewater Utility Master Plan (WWUMP) is the overarching planning document intended to present key issues, programs, projects and associated budgets for the collection system, wastewater treatment plant and water quality programs.
Project Overview
The WWUMP is supported by three primary planning documents for the Wastewater Utility:
Service Areas
Boulder's wastewater collection system and the 75th Street WWTP serve residences and businesses within the 26 square-mile Wastewater Utility Service Area (WUSA). Boulder's collection system currently serves a population of approximately 110,000 people and 101,000 employees associated with commercial and industrial businesses.
Projected growth is anticipated to occur primarily through in-fill and redevelopment projects resulting in an estimated 128,000 people and 156,000 employees within the WUSA.
