In-game description

Water Treatment Control is a hulking concrete building on Dam Battlegrounds, packed with plumbing and ageing water-processing machinery. It stands in the west of the map, and the in-game map marks it for Industrial and Mechanical loot.

In an ordinary round the building has 18 container spots, though most are possible spots and only some are filled each time. Ammo Boxes are the most common, alongside Weapon Cases, Worn Backpacks and Grenade Tubes, and there are 2 Raider Caches, a Crashed ARC Probe and a Baron Husk. ARC guard the place: there are spawn points for 3 Turrets, a Sentinel and a Snitch, though not every one is used each round, and both small and large machines can turn up, with the type varying from round to round. You will also come across 7 Field Crates, a Supply Call Station and a Mast lift.

The Water Treatment Elevator is about 100 m away, with the Central Swamp Lift about 180 m off if you need another way out. Cold Snap rounds bring 10 container spots of their own here. The Dam Surveillance Key (Uncommon) opens a door inside the building.
