The Department of Water Environment Protection (OCDWEP) plays an important role in everday life. Our operations protect public health and are necessary for economic growth. OCDWEP takes wastewater from homes, businesses, and industries across the County and performs the critical process of "cleaning" it before it returns to local waterways.

OCDWEP's monumental task of treating over 33 billion gallons of wastewater a year could not be done without its incredible workforce. Our team is innovative and dynamic, with diverse skillsets, from engineers to operators, lab technicians, mechanics, administrative and more.
