Recommended Reading ListIn partnership with Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) and the Wisconsin Wastewater Operator’s Association (WWOA), Wisconsin’s Water Library is making available these technical manuals in support of the educational needs of current and potential wastewater operators around the state. Nature has an amazing ability to cope with small amounts of water wastes and pollution, but it would be overwhelmed if we didn't treat the billions of gallons of wastewater and sewage produced every day before releasing it back to the environment. Treatment plants reduce pollutants in wastewater to a level nature can handle. Wastewater is used water. It includes substances such as human waste, food scraps, oils, soaps and chemicals. In homes, this includes water from sinks, showers, bathtubs, toilets, washing machines and dishwashers. Businesses and industries also contribute their share of used water that must be cleaned. Wastewater also includes storm runoff. Although some people assume that the rain that runs down the street during a storm is fairly clean, it isn't. Harmful substances that wash off roads, parking lots, and rooftops can harm our rivers and lakes. There are also useful links here: Water on the Web: Wastewater Treatment.
