CATCH BASIN MAINTENANCE - How You Can Help
Storm Drain Melting snow and heavy rainstorms can rapidly lead to sand, leaves, and debris covering catch basins and blocking the flow of stormwater, resulting in flooding on streets and/or nearby driveways.

Residents can help by removing debris off of catch basin grates at street corners in their neighborhood. Any assistance the citizens of Port Angeles can provide in keeping catch basins open and free of debris during storm events will be very much appreciated.

~ Thank you from the Public Works & Utilities Department ~
