RIEGER REMINDS SUMP PUMP USERS TO DIRECT THEM TO THE GUTTERS

Huron Water-Sewer superintendent Rob Rieger made another plea before the city commission Monday night referencing sump pumps.  After April 1st a city ordinance directs any sump pumps in the city be switched to discharge outside towards the street and clear from the sanitary sewer.

Rieger gives an example of the problems that a moderate rainfall can cause.

He said the water -sewer department is available for any questions.

Make sure that your sump pumps are routed away from the house as far away from the foundation as you can, towards the street and to the gutter if possible and that will help the water-sewer department.
