The wastewater and sewage that drain from inside your house is treated and cleaned before it enters the ocean, but the storm drains in the street outside your home flow directly to streams, rivers, and lakes without any treatment. It is therefore very important that no one be allowed to dump waste of any kind onto street surfaces, drainage pipes and ditches, or into storm drains - they are only for rainwater.
If you see someone dumping anything onto street surfaces, into storm drains, or into any other device built to contain rainfall or runoff in
the City of Dardenne Prairie, please report it immediately by calling City Hall
at 636-561-1718 or by using the form below.
