Salmon Creek Plant Miller Creek Plant Compost Facility Hatchery Treatment Overview
Hatchery
Miller Creek is the only public sewage plant in the state to have constructed a salmon hatchery on site. Operated by our local chapter of Trout Unlimited, two hundred sixty thousand salmon fry are hatched, raised and released here every year.
 
At one time, the local streams were well-stocked and flowed unimpeded by pipes and culverts.
By monitoring these streams and keeping them stocked with salmon fry, we hope to return to pre-development days.
 
In this way, Southwest Suburban Sewer District is forming valuable relationships with local constituencies to help preserve our environment.
