How many men does it take to get into a manhole🧐
This #ThrowbackThursday features an old photo of our team lowering a team member down into a manhole during a training event and a current photo of the scene down there.
Manholes are a critically important part of our sewer system, allowing our Field Services Technicians to access and clean out the pipes. Roots and other debris accumulate and can cause sewage spills on your property or on our beaches.
Although we miss giving tours at our headquarters, our virtual tour gives a glimpse into what we do from the comfort and safety of your home🏠
Listen along as Field Service Technician Todd Amos explains why we utilize Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) camera viewing in the pipes. This camera travels through 200 miles of sewer lines to determine any new root intrusions/blockage or irregularities, such as sand, roots, or pool plaster. Take a look at some of the items we find!

World Water Day💧
The World Water Day celebrates water and raises awareness of the global water crisis, and a core focus of the observance is to support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6: water and sanitation for all by 2030.
The theme of World Water Day 2021 is valuing water. The value of water is about much more than its price – water has enormous and complex value for our households, food, culture, health, education, economics and the integrity of our natural environment.
Happy St. Patrick's Day🍀
Luckily, we get to enjoy green across our landscape, as we appreciate how water makes things green. Our District really is a pot of gold🌈
