Taking water from underground aquifers and distributing it to your home is an elaborate process that takes quality facilities and committed employees. This process all starts at the water treatment plant and surrounding property. The Oskaloosa Water Department plant is located three miles north of Oskaloosa on Highway 63, next to the South Skunk River. As seen in the photo, a large reservoir is located next to the highway, its bluish-green color easily catching the eye of those driving by. The brick buildings, built years ago give the plant a rustic look. The Spring and Summer months find the plant grounds green and well manicured. The Oskaloosa Water Plant is a Mahaska County landmark and the department staff takes great pride and care in maintaining its uniqueness. The treatment plant is in operation from 7:00 AM to midnight, 365 days a year.
