Hilton Head Public Service District (PSD) has once again earned the S.C. Department of Environmental Services’ Facility Excellence Awards for the PSD’s Recycled Water Plant on Oak Park Drive, and for its sanitary sewer collection system. The award recognizes the PSD team for environmental protection and regulatory compliance. The PSD’s Recycled Water Plant annually treats approximately 1 billion gallons of wastewater, producing beneficial recycled water that is then used for golf course irrigation and wetlands nourishment, with zero discharge to area waterways. The PSD’s sanitary sewer collection system represents one of the best environmental protection systems on the island, collecting wastewater from homes and businesses for conveyance to the Recycled Water Plant.
“The PSD is committed to the protection of our public health and the island’s delicate environment through our vital recycled water program,” said PSD General Manager Pete Nardi. “This service represents our community’s most effective and efficient way of ensuring a high quality of life now and for generations to come. The statewide recognition of the Facility of Excellence Awards is a testament to the dedication and professionalism of our PSD team, and the ongoing support of our customers and PSD Board of Commissioners.”
