Sewer service area planning is not intended to restrict a community's growth, obligate wastewater treatment plants to provide sewer throughout the planning boundary or affect community annexation policy.

Sewer service area planning plays an important role in keeping Wisconsin's water safe for drinking, recreation and diverse aquatic life. This planning also identifies areas where sewers should not go: environmentally sensitive areas where development would have an adverse impact upon water quality. A sewer service area plan identifies existing sewered areas as well as adjacent land most suitable for new development. This planning helps protect communities from adverse water quality impacts through development of cost-effective and environmentally sound 20-year sewerage system growth plans. Sewer Service Area Planning is a process designed to anticipate a community's future needs for wastewater treatment.
