About Upper Thompson Sanitation District
At UTSD we take our jobs very seriously. We know you are counting on us to keep the wastewater sanitation system running smoothly, our waterways clean, our wildlife healthy, and our environment pristine. You may not think about the importance of our work; however, we take great care in ensuring the health of our home.
Our Focus
Our Customers
We all have an expectation that our sinks will drain and our toilets will flush. UTSD’s primary focus is ensuring we provide this critical public service to our customers each day. We prioritize your sewer system so you don’t have to.
Our Environment
Cleaning and disinfecting wastewater is an extremely technical, complex and regulated process. At UTSD we verify that the quality of the water we put back into the Big Thompson River meets and exceeds regulations set by the EPA and CDPHE.
Our Community
UTSD is an integral part of the Estes Valley. Our directors and staff work and live in this community. It’s our mission to ensure the sustainability of our facilities, preserving the natural beauty that surrounds us and maintaining the quality of life we are used to.
