Sewage Treatment Plants in Ulhasnagar 1, Ulhasnagar.

In Camp 1 a new building's sewage plant has to fit on a plot that may leave no open ground at all. The usual answer is a compact plant under the podium or in a basement, with space designed in for access, ventilation and the removal of sludge. Capacity follows the building as it will actually be occupied; we plan for flushing with the treated water, and set up an operating contract with clear duties, so the society can hold someone to account.

Ulhasnagar 1 is the camp at the Shahad end of the city, closest to Kalyan and to the Ulhas. Like the other camps it began as rows of barracks for families arriving after Partition, and those rows were rebuilt, extended and built upon until they became narrow streets of three- and four-storey buildings. Shops and small workshops occupy the ground floors, and homes fill the floors above. Markets draw buyers from Kalyan, Ambernath and the villages beyond. Open land barely exists, and many of the older buildings are now due for redevelopment.
