With the increase in river levels due to the rain, excess stress is being placed on the city lift station pumps. To assist with the removal of excess water from your home, be advised City of Crookston Code 52.16 provides it is unlawful for any person to discharge or cause to discharge any storm water, surface water, ground water…to any sanitary sewer. This means do not pump water into the city sanitary system. RESIDENTS; pump the water into the street. Also be advised, to further reduce stress on our lift station pumps, reduce water consumption.
For additional information and/or to report any high-water concerns, please call the Emergency Operation Center at 218-281-4363 or 218-281-4383.
