Crews in the Sewer Division maintain a total of 13 sanitary sewer lift stations and 120 miles of sanitary sewer mains in addition to 1 storm sewer lift station and 46 miles of storm sewer mains.

With camera scoping equipment in place, the number of sewer backups in the City has declined drastically. Proactive cleaning and monitoring has drastically reduced the number of sewer back-ups.

If your sewer is backed up, please call Public Works 651-747-3650 who will respond at no charge. If the blockage is not in the City's main line, you be instructed to contact a sewer cleaning service to remove the blockage from your private line.
