I observed some sewer overflow near the lift station at the corner of Rusgan and Ramble Road West.
The sewage is backing up in the laundry room of my apartment. I contacted the landlord and he said it is a city issue of overflowing pipes from rain.
Our shower has flooded with water and fecal matter twice in the past two days.
A hole has developed alongside the storm sewer drain (inlet). The pavement above the hole has begun to crumble and sink.
I dropped my phone into the sewer grate outside my house
I live at 5838 W Waterstone Trace and there is a drainage grate right in front of my driveway. The grate is falling thru. I had someone reset it but it might need to have the opening it sits in repaired.
There are two storm pipes located just north of the IMI concrete facility on Rogers, directly across the street from the warehouse. One storm pipe appears to be mostly blocked by debris (lumber, branches, some plastic and other trash). The second pipe is mainly blocked by a large dam of branches. Water is slowly flowing over the dam and draining through the southern pipe. Yesterday, 04 Feb, the water level appeared to be approximately 6 inches above the makeshift dam.
Both storm inlets are clogged at the intersection of Olde Mill Drive and Winslow Farms Drive on the south side. Giant puddle has formed across both lanes. And, it's deep.
My Name is Josh Goodman and I live at 2821 E Tapps Turn, 47401. My gutters drain into an underground drain tile system (pvc pipe) and, as best as I can tell, this system drains east to west, runs under my backyard, and then hooks into the storm sewer (somewhere underground) on the east side of Sare Rd just north of where Buttonwood Rd intersects Sare Rd. I've been having issues for a while with the system backing up causing water to bubble out of the drain tile and down into the ground right next to the house. This tends to only happen during medium to heavy downpours. I had Roto Rooter come out with their pressurized water snake and camera and we cleaned out the entire system up until the point where it enters the storm sewer, but the issue still persists. There was a little bit of debris (leaves, etc.) but nothing that would cause the issue I'm seeing. Would it be possible for someone in the Utility Department to come out to my property to take a look to see if there is anything that can be done on the City's side to remedy this issue? I can be reached at 812-671-0049. Thanks, Josh
