Holland BPW Water Main Flushing begins in April and will continue through the summer in the neighborhoods located between Ottawa Ave. and Old Orchard from South Shore Drive to north of 146th Street.

Water reclamation is the process of renewing wastewater so that it can return safely to the natural environment.
The Holland Board of Public Works views this responsibility as part of a circular economy, where there is no waste. Our vision is that everything processed at the Water Reclamation Facility becomes beneficial. Nothing truly disappears from the environment, so we strive to take care of every piece of it.
Our Water Reclamation Facility sits on River Ave near the banks of Lake Macatawa. Because of its location, this wastewater treatment plant is limited in physical space for future expansion. To care for the resources we have and extend the life of our current wastewater infrastructure without requiring additional investments, we pay close attention to the capacity of our wastewater facility.
Current Progress Construction of the city-wide network is ongoing. We expect to complete the project in Summer 2026. The project plan is designed to roll out in phases as the network is built, neighborhood by neighborhood – or Fiberhood by Fiberhood.
