Wastewater is generated from people using their toilets, sinks, bathing, dishes, and laundry. Water reclamation is the process by which we collect, treat, and prepare this water for safe release back into the environment.
In addition to wastewater treatment, Fox Metro also maintains public sanitary sewer service pipes over 15″ in diameter and lift (pump) stations. We also serve commercial and industrial users by providing resources, open proposals, and bid notices for contracted work. Residents are responsible for their own service pipes that connect to the main public service lines under the streets.
Drinking water and stormwater inquiries should be directed to your local municipality. Boulder Hill residents should direct their non-wastewater inquiries to Village of Montgomery on drinking water and Oswego Township for all other matters, such as leaf collection, clogged storm drains, and snow removal.
