The international waterway the plant dumps treated sewage in. I think it’s more that just where the physical plant is located
Why don’t they just use the ocean for the treated water? The only reason I can think of for dumping treated water into an international waterway is that a certain volume of water is required by treaty to go down stream. The Colorado River has these kinds of agreements for states and Mexico.

Well just to be a general steward of the environment you don’t dump raw sewage into international waters.

Yes, I understood that and is why I said treated water. You are supposed to be able to put the treated water into other bodies of water, right? This is why there is water treatment all along the Mississippi River and people are drinking the water downstream of the treatment plants.
