Sacramento Area Sewer District
The Sacramento Area Sewer District (SacSewer) is the Sacramento region’s sewage collection, treatment, and resource recovery facility—providing service to more than 1.6 million people.
Keeping our sewer system in top operating condition is a 24/7 job, and we take that job very seriously. With 5,000 miles of pipes and 117 pump stations, we are the second largest sewage collection utility in California. We also own and operate the second largest water resource recovery facility of its kind in the nation, the EchoWater Resource Recovery Facility located near Elk Grove.
While the focus of our mission is to protect public health and the environment by collecting, treating, and recovering resources from sewage, we do much more than that. We are also committed to proactive environmental stewardship and have robust programs that demonstrate that commitment.
