City Council Gets Update On Local Effort To Prevent Sanitary Sewage Overflows Tuesday, January 26, 2021 - by Joseph Dycus
Bill Payne and Jeff Rose on Tuesday gave the City Council an update on what Public Works has done to fix SSOs (Sanitary Sewage Overflow) and what is planned. They mostly spoke about projects that will happen within District 9.
“We wanted to address those areas today,” said Mr. Payne, the public works administrator. “There are a lot of pieces that happen within the consent decree, and the problems causing them are needing to create capacity within existing lines.”
Jeff Rose, director of city Wastewater, told the council that fixing SSOs often involves far more than just addressing the site that is overflowing. Because everything is “hydraulically connected,” several areas must be addressed to fix the problem.
