The Albany County Sewer District was established by County Resolution No. 45 of 1968 and has provided wastewater services since the Spring of 1974. The Sewer District’s operation and maintenance costs are funded wholly through user fees and assessments. The District’s activities are directed by a five member Board of Commissioners appointed by the Albany County Legislature. The day to day operations are overseen by the Executive Director and an operations and maintenance staff of 87 to perform all permit, operational, maintenance and laboratory functions.
