Cracked Foundation At Century Sewage Plant Springs Leaks
September 26, 2024
Wednesday, the Town of Century was dealing with two leaks from the foundation of their wastewater treatment plant.
According to reports submitted to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the town applied lime to the affected area and washed it down as the cleanup was ongoing.
Century’s wastewater system was dedicated in June, 1990.

The Town of Century is enlightening to read about. I am a type of person who enjoys
learning. Please stay on top of this article and let us readers know the specifics, for
instance which type of lime was used, who applied it, how was it specifically applied,
where were the leaks in the foundations exactly located, what number tank was
involved; What date was it noticed compared to the date it was fixed and date officially
reported, how many gallons of wastewater was released in the ground by the leaks,
exactly who found the leaks?
I would hope that people relying on the land and especially the natural water might
have an interest in reading more about wastewater treatment plants and fixing
foundation cracks. JMO
It would be a good thing if ECUA took over this facility before it creates a health hazard for the surrounding water ways.
What did they do to fix the leak or is it still ongoing too?
It’s a new season of “How the Century Turns”.
Season 1, Episode 1 – The mayor of Century rams through charter amendments giving him more power.
Season 1, Episode 2 – More trouble at the Sewage Treatment Plant. Time for more grant money.
Season 1, Episode 3 – stay tuned. still writing the plot line but it is not looking good.
No surprises here; poor/no leadership minding the needs of infrastructure brings this kind of result.
