Morris Forman Area Team

The Morris Forman Area Team (MFAT) is responsible for capital improvement projects at the Morris Forman Wastewater Treatment Plant (WTP) and the five regional treatment plants (West County, Cedar Creek, Hite Creek, Floyds Fork and Jeffersontown). Additionally, the MFAT is also involved in the enhancement/expansion of MSD's small neighborhood treatment plants, pumping stations, flood pump stations, and flood control systems.

Capital Projects
A major project, Alternative Solids Processing, started in June 2000 and was completed in 2006. The Alternative Solids Processing project was a $64.6 million construction project, the largest in MSD history. This new process has replaced the facility’s low-pressure oxidation or Zimpro system. The Zimpro system was the main source of odors from the Morris Forman Facility. Since 1995, MSD has invested more than $7 million in odor control measures at the Morris Forman facility. MSD is using the biosolids from the plant to produce Louisville Green a slow-release organic fertilizer suitable for many fertilizer applications. All of the biosolids were hauled to the landfill at an annual cost of over $600,000. For more information please visit www.LouisvilleGreen.com.

The West County Wastewater Treatment Plant (WCWTP) Expansion Project was a design/build project to add a 10.5 million gallon per day (mgd) annual average daily flow (ADF) wastewater treatment plant expansion to expand the existing plant from a permitted ADF of 19.5 mgd to an ADF of 30 mgd.

The Hite Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant (HCWTP) Expansion Project was a design/build project to expand the existing plant from a permitted average daily flow (ADF) of 4.4 mgd to an ADF of 6.0 mgd.
