Roane County Government

Wastewater Plant

Gene Mcclure, Director RC Public Utility

The Roane County Public Utility (RCPU) operates the county’s wastewater plant and sewer system, serving residential, commercial, and industrial customers. The plant was built in 1976 by the Roane County Industrial Development Board, mainly to serve the Roane County Industrial Park and Roane State Community College. The plant property and sewer lines were transferred to Roane County Government in 2001, and RCPU was formed in 2006 under the oversight of the County Board of Public Utilities. Today the plant can treat up to 1,000,000 gallons of wastewater per day, and our staff work to protect public health and the environment while providing reliable service to the people of Roane County.

ATTENTION: Roane County Public Utility will have the road closed at 671 Old Highway 70 in Harriman on Monday, November 9th for utility work. We appreciate your patience.
