Waterplant is the third water plant that the player and Mark face, and is also optional to fix. Fixing will award a player with an achievement.
The entirety of the Stalburg Central Water Plant, a massive underground facility with several connecting Bergmann and minitrain tunnels. This is the third and final water-treatment plant Mark encounters and can optionally repair, as well as the most complex.

=Story=
Far before Infra, there had been issues with employees mistakenly routing sewer water into the raw water, which required executive hiding of valves. Meanwhile, an employee by the name of Thomas Balog became interested in the levels of pollution inside of the potable water of Stalburg. He inferred that it was because of the Uranium mine near the water source, and that corruption was the cause of its approval. He is not alone in his assumption of the uranium mine causing water pollution. Recently, before the events of Infra, there was a switch-up in staffing around the water plant. Robin was fired, and an unknown employee with moonshiner contacts was transferred to Pitheath. During the game, on August 15th, plant operators noticed a lack of water coming in from the Bergmann tunnels, as well as a break in at the Pitheath water plant. Workers considered pulling water from the reservoir for the city, but did not that day. Later, Mark would arrive. A tunnel collapse following him caused a natural gas pipe to burst, and the gas ignited. This explosion caused a fireball that tripped the fire alarm, and caused the fire suppression system to seal off the water plant. Mark would possibly change the plant's setting to pump water from the reservoir, and then continue on through the tunnels on one of their only operational mini-train.
Several events took place prior to the start of ''INFRA'', an illegal flushing line was constructed in the plant that made it possible to flush the sewers with fresh water, hazardously connecting the sewage pipes with the main water supply. Various problems also rendered the plant's primary flocculation pool inoperable. At some point, [[Robin]] was fired from Stalburg Water after causing several issues with the freshwater systems, and another employee with moonshiner contacts was transferred to the Pitheath Water Treatment Plant.  


An employee of the water plant, Tomas Balog became interested in the levels of pollution of the potable water of Stalburg. He acquired several documents that confirmed that the cause of a contaminant was a uranium mine built near the water source, and several board officials of Stalburg Water were bribed into approving its construction.
During the events of ''INFRA'', earlier that day, plant operators noticed the lack of water coming in from the Bergmann tunnels, the workers considered pulling water from the reserve for the city, but didn't finish configuring the sequence of water treatment. Later that day, Mark would arrive. After accessing another section of Bergmann tunnels, he finds his route back to the metro tunnels is blocked off, and must take a detour through the Central Water Plant. Another hallway caves in, causing a natural gas pipe to burst and ignite. This resulting explosion causes a fireball that nearly kills Mark and activates the fire alarm. After resetting the alarm system. Mark calls Paul Lauwens to inform him about the metro tunnel collapse, exasperated at the dangers he's been put through. Paul is relieved to hear Mark's alive, and asks if he can get out of the water plant, to which Mark replies that he'll call him when he's out. Mark explores the complex, and finds the only exit is through a flooded minitrain tunnel that can only be accessed by draining the sewer pipe. Mark can choose to simply activate the sewage pump or attempt to redirect the sewage flow without contaminating the raw water or flocculation pool, and [[Puzzle:_Underground_Water_Treatment_Plant|supply Stalburg with fresh water]]. After the flood door is open, Mark rides a minitrain out of the water plant.

===Stalburg Central Water Plant===
The Stalburg Central Waterplant is a plant responsible for taking water from nearby sources and attempting to purify it to potable standards. The plant is in disrepair, natural gas pipes leading to it smashed, water from the Bergmann tunnels no longer flowing, mini-trains off their rails, and concrete crumbling. The staff have a major alcoholism problem, as well. Workers are more interested in finnishing their work day and drinking than supplying the city with fresh water, and some workers even have moved to moonshine to get their alcohol fix. Several doors are broken, including fire exits.
The Stalburg Central Waterplant is a treatment plant responsible for processing water from nearby sources and purifying it to potable standards. The plant is in some disrepair, the flocculation pool is broken and water is no longer flowing from the Bergmann tunnels, but most of the machinery and pumps are undamaged. The employees of the plant note that the CEO of Stalburg Water, Roman Banis, is largely ignorant of the problems at the facility.

*If Mark repaired the Pitheath Water Treatment Plant, another email from Roman Banis will change to acknowledge Mark's presence and work there. 
*An out of place rubber duck can be seen next to the collapsed Bergmann tunnel in the raw water reservoir.
