Waste Water Treatment

The Indian Valley Community Services District (IVCSD) provides wastewater treatment and sewer services for the communities of Greenville and Taylorsville, California. Wastewater from these communities is treated at IVCSD facilities and managed through an evaporation pond system.

Five full-time employees make up IVCSD maintenance staff who operate and maintain both systems. Service fees support the cost of daily operations, routine maintenance, and compliance with state regulations and required fees.

The Taylorsville sewer system serves approximately 95 users and operates as a community leach field system. It includes two pumps and roughly five miles of collection mains.

The Greenville sewer system serves approximately 570 equivalent dwelling units. The system includes about 11 miles of collection mains, five pumping stations, 170 manholes, and 29 acres of wastewater lagoons. The system processes an average daily flow of about 300,000 gallons.

The Greenville sewer system was originally constructed in 1959. Much of the collection system is made of aging clay pipe that has developed cracks over time. These conditions contribute to increased wastewater flows during the winter months. IVCSD is currently planning for the future replacement and modernization of this aging infrastructure to improve reliability and service.
