It's All About Clean Water.
Have you ever wondered what happens to the water that gets flushed down your toilet or goes down the drain?
Most of us don't give it a second thought. But that's not the case for the Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati (MSD). Every day, MSD turns about 200 million gallons of wastewater back into clean water.
MSD is a local wastewater utility that provides sewer service to about 232,000 households and businesses in the City of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, Ohio.
MSD's service area encompasses 290+ square miles and serves 43 of the 49 communities in Hamilton County as well as small parts of Butler, Clermont, and Warren counties.
MSD operates and maintains more than 3,000 miles of public sewers, about 100 pump stations, 9 wet weather facilities, 9 wastewater treatment plants, and the Lick Run Greenway in South Fairmount.
MSD was formed in 1968 as a county sewer district under state law. We are governed by an agreement between the City of Cincinnati and Hamilton County. MSD has more than 600 employees who work for the City of Cincinnati.
