SIRWA Serves Southern Iowa with Water and Wastewater Services

The concept of rural water lines running across fields and open spaces of Southern Iowa was merely a dream 30 years
ago when SIRWA was founded. After much hard work and cooperation, SIRWA has over 3,600 miles of pipeline installed to transport quality drinking water to the residents and communities of Southern Iowa. To further this concept, SIRWA now has installed and operates municipal wastewater systems in several communities as well.

Macksburg Wastewater Lagoon

Macksburg Lagoon sewer project is a “Low Pressure Sewer System”. Low pressure systems require a grinder pump installed at every house which is then connected to forced main lines. These mains, measuring one and a half to three inches in diameter, flow to a two cell, controlled discharged lagoon. Currenty, the wastewater lagoon is finished, along with all main lines. The contractors are in the process of installing the individual grinder pumps at each residence and with weather permitting, most of the grinder pumps can be installed before winter sets in. Then we can move forward in the spring with the clean up process.
