DID YOU KNOW?
- The City of Troy is conducting a manhole inspection program on the City's sanitary sewer system. This is required in order to determine if the City is contributing excess flows to the sanitary sewers. These excess flows could be storm (rain) water entering the sanitary sewers through cracks in sanitary pipes, manholes or through sanitary/storm sewer cross connections. This storm water flow is then unnecessarily sent through the sanitary sewers to the Detroit wastewater treatment plant where it is treated as if it were sanitary flow. Smoke testing may be extended to May/June depending on the weather. Read this for more informationSanitary Sewer Smoke Testing.
- Final approval of a new water contract with the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department and the City of Troy was passed in June of 2008. We have opportunities to make adjustments to the contract in 2013 and every 5 years until the contract expires in 2037.
- Troy's Streets Division cleans and maintains over 1,700 lane miles of local and major roads, the same roads that are used by approximately 400,000 vehicles a day.
