It is considered a Special district (United States), special district of the North Hempstead, New York, Town of North Hempstead. The district's sewage treatment plant is located adjacent to Little Neck Bay. In 1971, the government criticized the district in a pollution report for inadequately handling sewage; it was stated that the district was responsible for polluting Little Neck Bay. In the mid-1970s, the Belgrave Sewer District proposed filling in a 150-by-290-foot area of the Udalls Cove wetlands near its sewage treatment plant, which at the time was 46 years old. The proposal was denied by the Great Neck Estates, New York, Village of Great Neck Estates and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, which stated that the project would cause severe damage to the surrounding environment. The Belgrave Sewer District is headquartered in Great Neck.Communities served
