The Daily Sludge Report Zero Days Without A Smell Report Check back for updates as reports come in- Please note that reports are from a voluntary Facebook group and each  report also represents an unknown number of individuals who are also aware  of the smells that are permeating our neighborhoods. Thanks to  Christine Moore's  office, we are now able to document smell  occurrences on a digital file.   Please Help Me Get Rid of This Smell so I Can Do Other Stuff Points of reports are documented on the map. The descriptions are a work in progress.

Mt Dora Water Reclamation Plant Upgrades

More info on the City of Mt Dora Water Reclamation Plant upgrades at 441 and SR46, from Joe Grusauskas/ Utility & Plant Operations Director. “The project engineering task authorization will begin shortly. The new system will need to be permitted by the FDEP before it can be bid. The construction process will take a while. Staff will have a better startup schedule after the engineer submits a permit and has prepared a bid. In the meantime, the existing odor system is getting additional repairs which should help eliminate some of the airflow shortcutting. This should help knock down more odor in the interim. The new unit will be a state of art technology and sized for the buildout of the facility The upgrade was anticipated to happen with a larger plant expansion, but to be a good neighbor, Council concurred it would be best to accelerate. Thanks for taking the time to visit and learn about the facility. It takes Citizens like you to be involved to build a great utility. Joe” S...

Tour of Mount Dora Water Water Reclamation Facility: Guest Post by Amber Perretti

  "Report from my 12/17/20 tour of the Waste Water Plant" The Mt Dora Water Reclamation Facility on 441 and SR 46 has been in operation for approximately 12-15 years. Its’ primary function is to convert sewer wastewater into reclaimed water for irrigation purposes. The facility is operating at half its current capacity and is master-planned to be built to double its current size. Grease trap waste and septic tank waste are NOT accepted at the facility. Sludge (a compost material) extracted at the end of the reclaim process is hauled off by Shelly’s Septic for additional treatment and reuse as fertilizer. This sludge has no smell when it leaves the treatment plant site. After touring the facility, the only step that has odors is the "headworks" where the wastewater comes in and the "surge tank" where the wastewater is stored for processing. The current odor control system is carbon filtration. The carbon filters are changed out as needed. While carb...
