The Sparks production facility was located within a heavily regulated watershed, requiring pretreatment of industrial wastewater prior to discharge. Early project analysis indicated uncertainty around municipal discharge capacity and treatment requirements, creating potential operational and permitting risks for the facility.
Stream worked directly with regulatory authorities to implement a temporary off-site waste transport program to gather operational data and validate treatment technology requirements. In parallel, the team planned and coordinated design and procurement of a permanent pretreatment system while evaluating water reuse opportunities within the facility’s cleaning operations to reduce operating costs and environmental impact.
The completed pretreatment system enabled compliant production operations while improving long-term operational efficiency and providing flexibility for sustainable water reuse practices.
