From crush season to cleaning cycles, Sonoma wineries produce high-strength wastewater that requires careful handling. Nviro designs and delivers treatment systems that align with your production demands, protect your land and water, and meet California’s evolving regulatory standards.
Sonoma wineries generate thousands of gallons of process wastewater daily, especially during harvest. Without proper treatment, this wastewater, rich in sugars, solids, and organic load, can pose risks to groundwater, surface water, and vineyard soils. Regulatory agencies like the North Coast Regional Water Board require wineries to follow strict discharge and reuse practices.

Local Service & Ongoing Support: Nviro offers responsive service, maintenance, and compliance support to Sonoma wineries when they need it most.
Most wineries in Sonoma fall under the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (Region 1). Depending on discharge volume and method, you may need to comply with the General Waste Discharge Requirements for Winery Process Water or obtain an individual permit.
Yes, land application is common in Sonoma, but it must follow strict guidelines to protect groundwater and avoid surface runoff. Nviro designs systems that manage loading rates and seasonal storage to stay within permitted limits.
Reuse is possible but subject to additional permitting under Title 22 regulations. Nviro can deisgn and permit systems that meet water quality standards for vineyard or landscape irrigation.
