The Stalburg Central Water Plant is an underground fresh water treatment facility that serves as the primary supplier of fresh water in [[Stalburg]]. The facility is fed by water supplied by the [[Bergmann Water Tunnels]], though it also has an auxiliary water feed used in the event of an insufficient supply from the tunnels. The facility also contains an illegally installed flushing line assembly which flushes raw sewage into various phases of treatment. | The Stalburg Central Water Plant is an underground fresh water treatment facility that serves as the primary supplier of fresh water in [[Stalburg]].

The flocculation pools are the second phase of water treatment, and the first visible phase of treatment. The flocculation phase is divided between three separate pools- the larger main pool is used during regular operation, and the two smaller auxiliary pools are used as backup treatment pools in the event that there is an issue with the main pool.

The flocculation phase is divided between three separate pools- the larger main pool is used during regular operation, and the two smaller auxiliary pools are used as backup treatment pools in the event that there is an issue with the main pool. The main treatment pool is fed by four independently operable water pumps, which can be activated independently depending on the plant's load. The main pool also contains the second flushing line outflow, which tends to cause the main pool to become contaminated. The auxiliary pools have significantly reduced capacity, and are operated only in the event the main pool fails or becomes contaminated. Unlike the main pool, the auxiliary pool can bypass the sedimentation phase, and be pumped directly to the filtration phase. | ||
Next to the flocculation pool is a service tunnel designed for carrying natural gas to the water plant. The fire alarm system is tied into this tunnel, and the tunnel can be sealed by a blast door in the event of an explosion. | Next to the flocculation pool is a service tunnel designed for carrying natural gas to the water plant.

The control center is located adjacent to the main flocculation pools, and contains the main controls for the water plant along with housing the various personnel related facilities.The first floor contains an employee sauna and locker room, a set of one-person restrooms, and the main controls for the facility's fire alarm system. The first floor is also the only floor from which the sedimentation and disinfection phases can be accessed. The plant's main control room is located on the second floor, and personnel offices can be found scattered throughout the second and third floors. A laboratory is located on the fourth floor, and the exit to the plant is located on the fifth, though these floors are never visited. | The control center is located adjacent to the main flocculation pools, and contains the main controls for the water plant along with housing the various personnel related facilities.The first floor contains an employee sauna and locker room, a set of one-person restrooms, and the main controls for the facility's fire alarm system.
