What should you do if you see a sewage spill?
Make sure that people are kept away from the area of the overflow, typically a manhole cover.
This is especially important for children and pets that may play near the overflow area.
For example the street, public park, or local stream.
If liquid is coming out of a manhole cover with “Sanitary Sewer” on it, it is probably sewage.
Note: That sewage is NOT Brown or yellowish in color but can actually vary from a dark black to a dirty gray dishwater color.
Take notice of and report any sewer manhole covers that you see lifting up and spilling sewage, especially during heavy rain.
Report the sewer overflow immediately to the City of Henderson Collection Division at the numbers below and utility crew will be dispatched to investigate the problem.
Please leave your name, phone numbers and the location of the potential spill.
