About us
The Toho Water Authority was established in October 2003 by a special act of the Florida legislature and provides a full range of water, wastewater and reclaimed water services to its customers. The Authority currently serves an average of 158,000 water, 147,000 wastewater, and 34,000 reclaimed water residential and commercial customers in the City of Kissimmee, unincorporated areas of Osceola County, a small area of the southern portion of Orange County, certain portions of unincorporated Polk County, and the City of St. Cloud. Toho operates 14 water treatment plants consisting of wells, ground storage tanks, high-service pumps, and water distribution systems. Toho’s water facilities currently rely exclusively on groundwater derived from the upper Floridan aquifer. Raw water supply wells currently pump an average of 53.31 million gallons per day (MGD) to the 14 water treatment plants located throughout the service area. Potable water is distributed through 1,985 miles of water mains. Toho’s wastewater facilities include ten water reclamation plants, sewage collection facilities, and wastewater effluent disposal facilities. The water reclamation facilities (WRF) operate independently for set geographic areas throughout the service area. Wastewater is delivered to the various WRFs through a network of 1,736 miles of collection and transmission system piping with 605 wastewater pump stations. The highly treated reclaimed water produced by the WRFs is distributed through 667 miles of reclaimed water distribution mains and used for irrigation customers or routed to the system’s rapid infiltration basins (RIBs) to recharge the groundwater. The waste solids from the treatment process, termed bio-solids, are processed by a third party to produce a soil supplement/fertilizer that is beneficially used on agricultural lands.
