About

Serving the people of South Berwick since 1964

The South Berwick Sewer District was formed in 1964 by an act of the Maine Legislature to operate a sanitary sewer system in the town of South Berwick. The district has approximately 1200 members, 20 miles of sewer line, and a modern tertiary treatment plant.

The treatment plant is located on Liberty Street with a licensed effluent discharge to the Salmon Falls River.

Under its Charter, the mission of the Sewer District is to:

• Provide for the health and well-being of the inhabitants of the Town of South Berwick within the limits of the proposed sewer district by the creation, maintenance and operation of a modern sewer system.
• Ensure that all established environment standards are met with regard to sewage discharge into the Salmon Falls River.
