The sewer system in Nashville dates back to the late 1800s and originally consisted of a combined sewer system, later transitioning to separate sanitary and storm sewers. The treatment of wastewater began in the 20th century when pipelines were constructed to convey sanitary sewage along with stormwater to treatment plants to improve water quality. Metro Water Services began an aggressive program of infrastructure improvements in 1990 to reduce the number of CSOs (combined sewer overflows) and SSOs (sanity sewer overflows), making tremendous progress toward improving water quality in the Cumberland River and its tributaries. However, despite these improvements, a significant number of overflows still remain. Nashville’s sewer system is legendary for it’s catacombs of large and small tunnels, switchbacks and legends of the creepy-crawlies that lie within.
