LCU currently owns and operates eight wastewater plants.  Our staff is committed to producing quality effluent and protecting the environment. 

In 2006, the Fiesta Village Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facility won the Earle B. Phelps Award, which is given by the Florida Water Environmental Association to recognize a wastewater treatment facility for its ability to maintain the highest removal of major pollution causing constituents in the effluent before being discharged into receiving waters. 

The effluent being produced from our wastewater plants is either used for reclaimed water or put back into nature to become part of the water cycle.  LCU understands the importance of using reclaimed water to reduce the amount of potable water being used for irrigation and connects new reclaimed customers every year.
