“The Arlington Water Reclamation Facility has a notable record as one of the top municipal wastewater treatment plants in Washington based on effluent limits, submittals, and overall plant compliance. Ecology would like to extend our congratulations to the team at the Arlington Water Reclamation Facility for their devotion, dedication, and award-winning efforts. It takes considerable effort and teamwork to operate and maintain a wastewater treatment plant in top-running order,” stated Rachel McCrea, Water Quality Manager, NW Region Office of Department of Ecology.

Utilities Manager Caitlin Dwyer and Public Works Director Jim Kelly thanked staff for the excellent service the treatment plant operators provide to both the community, the Stillaguamish River, and to the waters of Washington.
