The word “groundbreaking” in the Aug. 13 story “Westbrook Digs in with Groundbreaking New Septic System” turned out to be true when it came to digging through earth to install its pilot passive nitrogen removal (PNR) septic system, but inaccurate in the sense of being the first in the state to do so.
Westbrook’s neighbor, Old Saybrook, installed a similar PNR system in 2016 at its Town Garage. This system was the result of a collaboration between the town and local company Geomatrix, LLC, which engineers advanced water filtration and reuse technologies to protect the environment.
The company’s founder, David Potts, worked closely with Department of Public Works (DPW) Director Larry Bonin on the PNR project, explained Geomatrix Environmental Scientist Sara Wigginton.
