Throughout the city's history until 1992, water production has been based on the surface water of Lake Immalan. In August 1992, Hiekkoinlahti groundwater was put into use. Groundwater has been pumped from the Myllypuro water intake in Joutseno since August 2007 through the connecting water pipe.
Imatran Vesi constantly studies and investigates the maintenance of its water resources in many different ways. One way is to be involved in various investigations.
Wastewater treatment
Meltola's wastewater treatment plant receives the wastewater of approximately 30 residents from Imatra, Ruokolahti, Korvenkylä, Rauha - Tiuruniemi and the Rautjärvi station region. It is a parallel precipitation plant built in 000. The permit conditions for Imatra's wastewater treatment plant were determined in the decision of the Eastern Finland Water Court in 1981.
Obligatory inspection results of the wastewater treatment plant
In connection with the monitoring and control of the state of the environment, obligatory samples are taken twice a month from the incoming waste water before flushing and from the outgoing water. The samples were analyzed by Synlab Oy, a subcontractor of FCG engineering and technology Oy. You can read summaries from the links below.
