The Sewer Department repairs, cleans and installs sanitary and storm sewer lines, televises sewer lines to determine sewer taps and trouble shoot possible problems in the main sewers and uses the Vactor machine to blow main sewer lines and clean culverts and catch basins. There are approximately 400 miles of sanitary and storm sewers installed from 1893 to 2002.   

There are twelve full time employees in the Street Department and four full time employees in the Sewer Department.  If help is needed in either department, personnel move from one department to the other to help out.
