Dependable wastewater collection is critical for our community. The JIPSD Wastewater Department is responsible for maintaining the public wastewater collection system serving more than 13,000 customers. Over 1 billion gallons of sewage pass through the JIPSD’s wastewater system annually.
Wastewater services are provided without a single penny of tax dollars from residents. The Wastewater Department operates on income received from wastewater bill payments. The money is used to purchase tools and equipment needed to maintain the system, including vehicles and machinery.
After-hour sewer emergency responders and online bill payment processing allow the Wastewater Department to be at your service 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

Wastewater Resolution
Project(s) Under Construction:
Rehabilitation of Wastewater Collection Facilities, Phase 5, SRF No. 543-24: The construction of upgrades and improvements to numerous wastewater manholes throughout the District is being financed by the State Revolving Fund (SRF). The SRF program is administered by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control with joint funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of South Carolina. This project will provide rehabilitation to 102 manholes throughout the District, lining manholes with a protective epoxy coating, and replacing manhole frames and covers as needed. This project will also provide an improvement to the existing wastewater system which will extend the life of the infrastructure for the residents and businesses throughout the District. SRF programs operate around the country to provide states and communities the resources necessary to maintain and improve the infrastructure that protects our valuable water resources.
