Join us on Wednesday, October 30 at 1 p.m. for a behind-the-scenes look at the EchoWater Resource Recovery Facility—the second largest facility of its kind in the nation! The Northern California Region Familiarization Tour will take you inside the EchoWater Facility, located near Elk Grove, to explore the sewage treatment process.

You don’t need to be a sewer nerd to attend, but we promise you’ll be one by the time you leave! This is your chance to gain valuable insights from SacSewer’s public relations pros on how their robust communications and outreach programs support the agency’s mission and keep customers informed, educated, and engaged through effective strategies.

Plus, you’ll discover where sewage goes after flushing, washing, or doing laundry and how the facility recovers and reuses the many valuable resources from sewage.
