    You guys should definitely do a field trip to a wastewater treatment plant, if you ever get the chance.
    Your kids would probably have a blast.

    I’ve been to so many, but I don’t know how hard it is for the general public to visit one.

      Since 9/11 they’re generally locked off from the public in the US. I attended some mass casualty and terrorism training and we talked with someone who ran their city water and sewer. He had a neat plan to radiate the city water system he helped them defend against.

        Smaller towns are still a little more open to tours. It’s worth asking.

        I had portraits taken above a clarifying pond for… reasons. The folks at the plant were very accommodating. I sent them a 4x6 print and a thank you card; I assume it will stay on their break room fridge until someone comes along with a weirder request.
