I work at a facility that treats wastewater. A typical day is doing a lab experiment that looks at the conditions of the reactors inside the plant and sees how well the processes are at treating the water and adjusting the processes so that it accommodates different flows and different wastewater influence.

Why you should join OCWA: If you want to gain experience and if you don’t know if you want to take that leap of faith, coming from someone that did it and was afraid of moving out of the big city to a rural area, which is where most OCWA facilities are, it’s worth it.
