Reducing combined sewer overflows
Mayor Tom Henry joined residents, river supporters and City Utilities' staff to celebrate a significant milestone of reducing combined sewer overflows (CSO) to no more than one per year on the St. Joseph River. The achievement complies with federal mandates and shows the number of combined sewer overflow events on the river is down to only one in a typical year - an accomplishment that is four years ahead of schedule.
