Tri-City Water Resource Recovery Facility Outfall Project

The Clack-A-Mole tunnel boring machine, which we used to help us dig the tunnel for the Tri-City Water Resource Recovery Facility Outfall Project, completed its journey and emerged at the bottom of the Willamette River on Dec. 1. The next step will be to retrieve Clack-A-Mole from the river. We’ll keep you posted on the status. You can track Clack-A-Mole's journey here.

Rock Creek Interceptor Extension Project

The Rock Creek Interceptor Extension Project was identified as a priority in the Capital Improvement Plan to ensure a safe, resilient, reliable sanitary sewer system with the capacity to serve our community now and in the future. This project will provide additional capacity and system improvements to serve Clackamas County and portions of the Happy Valley, Pleasant Valley, and North Carver Comprehensive Plan area.

Don't Treat Your Toilet Like a Trash Can - Trash It, Don't Flush It!

Flushing trash doesn't make it magically disappear. It either clogs pipes or stops operation at the wastewater system. So, trash it... don't flush it!

February 2 is World Wetlands Day

Although wetlands cover only around 6 per cent of the Earth’s land surface, 40 per cent of all plant and animal species live or breed in wetlands. Wetland biodiversity matters for our health, our food supply, for tourism and for jobs.

World Wetlands Day is a global awareness campaign celebrated annually on February 2 to draw awareness to the value of wetlands.
