Proactive Maintenance
Preventing Flooding and Protecting Property
For any municipality, flooding is a primary concern that can disrupt daily life, cause extensive property damage, and create serious safety hazards. A proactive approach to storm sewer maintenance is the most effective strategy to mitigate these risks. Debris, sediment, and root intrusion can quickly compromise the capacity of your stormwater system, leading to backups and overflows during heavy rainfall.
Our scheduled maintenance programs are designed to keep your storm drains and sewer lines clear and fully functional. By regularly removing blockages with high-powered jetting and vacuuming, we restore your system’s original capacity, ensuring it can handle peak water flow effectively. This preventative service significantly reduces the likelihood of street flooding and basement backups.
Environmental Responsibility
Ensuring Environmental Protection & Regulatory Compliance
Municipal storm sewer systems, often designated as Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4), are subject to strict state and federal environmental regulations. These systems discharge directly into local creeks, rivers, and streams, meaning any pollutants they carry can have a significant impact on water quality and aquatic life.
Properly maintaining your storm sewer is a critical aspect of environmental stewardship. Our comprehensive cleaning services remove harmful pollutants like oils, chemicals, and litter before they can contaminate local waterways. This helps your municipality meet its MS4 permit requirements and avoid costly fines for non-compliance, protecting both the environment and your budget.
Furthermore, our CCTV video inspections provide invaluable documentation for your compliance reporting. We can identify and address illicit discharges, failing connections, and other issues that could compromise water quality. Partner with us to ensure your stormwater management program is not only effective at preventing floods but also a pillar of your community’s commitment to environmental health.

Common Questions
Municipal Storm Sewer FAQs
Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions we receive from public works directors and municipal managers regarding our storm sewer services. If you have another question, please don’t hesitate to contact our knowledgeable team.
How often should a municipality clean its storm sewer lines?
Frequency depends on factors like tree coverage, traffic volume, and the age of the system. We typically recommend a full inspection to establish a baseline, followed by a customized cleaning schedule that may range from annually to every few years for different sections.
What is trenchless sewer repair?
Trenchless repair is a modern method of fixing pipes without extensive digging. Techniques like pipe lining create a new, durable pipe inside the old one, minimizing disruption to roads, sidewalks, and landscapes, which is ideal for municipal settings.
Can you help with our MS4 compliance reporting?
Yes. Our CCTV video inspection services provide clear visual evidence of your system’s condition, which is invaluable for MS4 audits and annual reporting. We provide high-quality video files and detailed inspection logs for your records.
What is the difference between a storm sewer and a sanitary sewer?
A storm sewer is designed to carry rainwater and snowmelt directly to local waterways to prevent flooding. A sanitary sewer carries wastewater from homes and businesses to a treatment plant. They are separate systems that should never be connected.
Why is catch basin cleaning so important?
Catch basins are the entry points to the storm sewer system. They trap sediment, trash, and debris. If they are not cleaned regularly, this material can wash into the main pipes, causing blockages and reducing the system’s overall capacity.
