Biosolid Amendments

These nutrient-rich biosolids have been carefully treated and monitored to meet all heavy metal, pathogen reduction, and vector attraction requirements of the health department.  Of course, this usually only excites those in the industry.  What might be exciting for Fruita residents is knowing that the Biosolids that are created at the wastewater plant can be used as a low-grade fertilizer or soil amendment on lawns and flower gardens, instead of being disposed of in some landfill.

• As a rate payer in the City of Fruita, the Biosolids product is offered at no charge.  Interested Residents are encouraged to call or stop by the Wastewater Reclamation Facility during normal business hours to find out more.
• Commercial Users: Biosolids/Fertilizer, from the Wastewater Reclamation Facility, is available at a rate of $20.00 per yard.  Please contact the Wastewater Reclamation Facility during normal business hours.
