Sugar Creek is the receiving
stream for partially treated
municipal and industrial waste
coming from the city’s sewage
plant which was built in 1950.
Though provisions of the Geor
gia Water Quality Control Act
specify that all sewage be given
a minimum of secondary (biol
ogical) treatment prior to dis
charge, the Mcßae sewage now
receives only primary treatment.
The present plant has a design
capacity of 175,000 gallons of
waste per day; however, studies
show that the current waste vol
ume reaching the plant to be
averaging around 280,000 gal
lons per day in 1968 -- 60 per
cent more than its design cap
acity.
R. S. “Rock” Howard, Jr., Ex
ecutive Secretary of the Board,
noted that “Our attempts to reach
a satisfactory solution with the
City of Mcßae have been contin
uing since 1965. Our samplings
show sugar Creek to be grossly
polluted and our files contain
several letters from irate citi
zens complaining of the stench
and health hazards created by the
sewage being dumped in this
creek. We have given the city
more than ample time to work
out design plans and financing to
solve this problem.”
On April 22 the Board ordered
Mcßae to complete and submit
plans and specifications, includ
ing financing arrangements,
within 45 days. Invoking provis
ions of the Georgia Water Qual
ity Control Act, the City filed a
petition for a hearing to appeal
the Board’s order.
