The plant has a treatment capacity of 384 million gallons per day (mgd) or 1.45 billion liters per day, with a peak capacity (partial treatment during large storms) of over 1 billion gallons per day (3.8 billion liters/day). The plant occupies 153 acres (0.62 km 2) in the southwest quadrant of Washington, D.C., and discharges to the Potomac River.
For water treatment, CWTP utilizes four ozone generators, designed to handle an average capacity of 275 million US gallons (1,040 million litres) per day—although average daily consumption is lower, at approximately 200 million US gallons (760 million litres)—and a peak level of 405 million US gallons (1,530 million litres) per day.
