The City of Monroe broke ground today on a water plant expansion project. The current water treatment plant has a capacity of 18 to 20 million gallons per day. The expansion will add about 8 to 10 million gallons per day of drinking water. The expansion will happen at the treatment facility property on Park Avenue.
The current treatment facility will be upgraded during the $46 million expansion. The plant serves Monroe and areas outside of the city limits purchase water from the plant.
