The illicit discharge elimination program identifies collector tiles and storm drains that carry pollutants to the streams. These tiles are monitored to make sure that no sewage or other pollution is discharging. If a problem is found, the sanitarian will try to follow the tile to the source of the pollution and get corrective action taken.
If you know of a drainage tile, stream, or ditch that you think we should add to our monitoring list, please call (740) 349-6535.
