The Laughlin Wastewater Reclamation Facility (LWRF).

The LWRF, located 1 mile west of the Laughlin gaming district, is an 8 million gallons per day (mgd) biological treatment facility. Utilizing state-of-the-art technology and equipment the LWRF has served the town of Laughlin since the dedication of municipal water and wastewater facilities in 1985.

What happens to the water we use?

Each day 3.5 million gallons of used water and sewage from local homes, hotels, motels, schools, churches and businesses make their way through the 26 miles of sewer pipe and three pumping stations (lift stations) and are pumped up to the Laughlin Wastewater Reclamation Facility. At the treatment facilities, the wastewater travels through a series of processes allowing the solids to be biologically removed and the reclaimed water is returned to the Colorado River.
