Bluefin cited for excellence by MPCA



Each year the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) recognizes Minnesota wastewater treatment facility operators that maintain a perfect record of permit compliance.

Recently MPCA recognized 334 Minnesota wastewater treatment facilities for maintaining outstanding compliance with their wastewater permit during 2018.

One of the recipients honored was Bluefin Bay on Lake Superior in Tofte.

Eligible facilities were recognized for submitting all required reports on time and correctly, for demonstrating consistent compliance with their permit, and for employing staff certified from the agency in wastewater operations.

The MPCA’s deputy commissioner Peter Tester presented the certificates and praised award recipients for their persistent work and dedication to protecting water quality.
