The Saylor and Jackson lift station receives the sanitary flows from the homes in the immediate area. The sanitary flows dump into a large wet well located within the station. The submersible pumps at the station then pump the sanitary flow through a force main (pipe under pressure) north to McKinley Street where it is dumped into a junction chamber on the main sanitary sewer line . From there it flows by gravity west to the Elmhurst Wastewater Treatment Plant for treatment. No stormwater flows into or through the lift station.
