What is the maximum treatment capacity for a Class "C" Conventional filtration plant?

0.1 MGD up to 0.5 MGD
0.3 MGD up to 1.0 MGD
1.0 MGD up to 3.0 MGD
1.5 MGD up to 2.5 MGD

The correct answer is: 0.3 MGD up to 1.0 MGD

The maximum treatment capacity for a Class "C" Conventional filtration plant falls within the range of 0.3 million gallons per day (MGD) up to 1.0 MGD. This classification is designed to handle water treatment for smaller systems, ensuring that plants can effectively manage the water quality and treatment needs for the communities they serve. The Class "C" designation indicates a specific level of complexity and scale in the operation of water treatment facilities, and it is crucial for license holders to understand these capacities to manage the plants appropriately and ensure compliance with health and safety regulations. Understanding the limitations of a Class "C" plant also helps operators plan for proper maintenance, staffing, and operational protocols to meet the demands of their service area.
