Document Description
Construct and modify the Rancho Seco Power Plant wastewater treatment and disposal system by creating an artificial wetland that would provide additional wastewater treatment and create additional wastewater storage. The artificial wetland would be constructed in one of two existing, concrete-lined service spray basins (measuring 330 by 165 feet at the bottom) that were previously used for cooling non-radioactive water at the plant. The basin would be divided into three cells, with two vegetative cells located next to each other and a third cell for water storage. Treated wastewater would be conveyed to the wetland in the first cell, allowed to flow by gravity through the wetland, then to the second cell, and any remaining water would be directed to the storage cell (later phase also to the second basin), and then to a 1.5 acre irrigation area.
