The WPCA staff is comprised of 7 people: A Superintendent, a Business Administrator, a Process Control Operator and five Operators. All employees, except the Business Administrator, hold professional wastewater certifications. The staff is responsible for operation and maintenance of the Treatment Facility, over 60 miles of sewer line, and 19 pumping stations. The treatment facility is currently capable of processing 2.02 million gallons of wastewater per day. There are also plans for new development in Town, which may add more pumping stations to the sewer system. The plant provides wastewater treatment for H.P. Hood, the Correctional facility, and all other businesses and homes within the sewer district. The plant operates under a NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) which provides parameters for the effluent discharged to the Connecticut River. The EPA and Connecticut DEP also provide oversight as to the operation of the plant.  

The Town of Suffield WPCA meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 7:30 pm at the Plant.
