Water and Sewer Overview

Morrison Water TowerThe Morrison Wastewater Treatment Collection system (the original sewers were constructed in 1902) consists of 17.7 miles of sewer ranging from 6” – 24” and six lift stations. The Wastewater Plant was built in 1939 and is a Secondary Trickling Filter Process with chlorine disinfection and de-chlorination. The Plant was designed for an average capacity of 941,000.00 thousand gallons per day and a maximum capacity of 2.586 million gallons per day (MGD).  The Plant produces 50 dry tons of sludge per year, which is applied twice a year to local agricultural land. Currently the Treatment Plant daily flows are far below the maximum capacity, which means there is a lot of room for Morrison to grow.

City of Morrison supplies the community by ground water pumped from two wells at a depth of 1,600 to 1,700 feet. Well # 3 pumping capacity is 1,000 gallons per minute and is located at Water Works Park. Well # 4 pumping capacity is also 1,000 gallons per minute and is located on the north end of town at Kelly Park. A 500,000-gallon Water Tower is also located at Kelly Park.
