CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS – Water Utilities will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of significant upgrades to the Oso Water Reclamation Plant.

The $25.2 million wastewater project is part of the City’s Wastewater Master Plan to invest over $252 million in the next three years to upgrade its six wastewater treatment plants, wastewater lift stations, and wastewater lines.

These construction overhauls will improve the plant’s operation efficiency, reduce sanitary sewer overflows during rainstorms, and mitigate the plant odor emissions impacting adjacent neighborhoods and businesses.
