Hello Maria!

Highest Level of Education and Income for Wastewater Operators SEE https://www.google.com/search?&q=Highest+Level+of+Education+and+Income+for+Wastewater+Operators+USA

I think it'd probably be a doctorate in chemical analysis. ALSO https://unity.edu/careers/wastewater-operator/ Undergraduate degrees like Environmental Science, Environmental Studi envirinmentales, and Environmental Health and Safety prepare students with fundamental knowledge of Earth sciences and how water treatment impacts the natural world. This insight will help water treatment operators understand the significance of their roles.

Angel’s Answer

As a wastewater or water treatment operator, you can climb up to the highest level, which is typically the "Chief Operator" or "Superintendent" role. These positions often require a combination of advanced certification and years of experience. For education, many operators pursue an associate degree in environmental science, chemistry, or a related field, along with specialized certifications. Some states or employers may require a Bachelor's degree for top roles.

As for income, it varies by location and experience, but Chief Operators can earn anywhere from $60,000 to $90,000 annually, with potential for higher salaries in large cities or utilities.
