Interceptor Sewers

Metro area homes and industries are connected to the metro wastewater treatment plants through an extensive network of sewer pipes.

Each community in the Twin Cities metropolitan area maintains the sanitary sewer pipes from homes or industries; these sewer pipes connect to regional interceptor sewers.

MCES owns and maintains approximately 600 miles of interceptor sewers, 62 lift stations, 21 rain gauge stations, and 188 flow meters. The interceptor sewers range in size up to 14 feet in diameter.

For additional information, please refer to one of the following MCES Interceptor Sewer Contacts.
