Customers on City sewer service will see an approximate 4% rate increase beginning July 1 – an increase that adds up to an additional $1.67 per month on a typical residential sewer bill.

The increase in rates will facilitate the continued improvement of the City’s aging sewer system and allow the community to remain in compliance with federal Clean Water Act regulations. The City of Springfield contracts with City Utilities for sanitary sewer services billing, so customers will notice this change on their August CU bills.

Springfield saw lots of rain over the weekend! ⛈️

Our team monitors rainfall at locations across the city to track how wet weather affects the sanitary sewer system. By comparing rainfall data with system performance, we can better understand inflow and infiltration patterns and how they impact operations at our wastewater treatment plants. 💧📍

Native plantings are beginning to take root near the Chestnut Expressway and College Street intersection as work continues on the Westport Branch Green Infrastructure Project.

These plantings offer a preview of the native landscaping that will help improve stormwater management and water quality in the Wilson's Creek watershed.

Construction continues on green infrastructure features including rain gardens, bioretention areas and expanded stormwater detention that will work together to slow, filter and treat stormwater runoff before it reaches local waterways.

More improvements and native plants to come! 🌱🌼💧

Springfield got lots of rain over the weekend! ⛈️
Our team tracks rainfall at multiple monitoring locations to see how wet weather affects the sanitary sewer system.

Why does this matter if we have a separate sewer and stormwater system?

➡ Infiltration occurs when groundwater enters the sewer system through cracks in private laterals, faulty connections or other openings.

➡ Inflow occurs when surface water such as storm water enters the sewer system through roof downspout connections, holes in manhole covers, illegal plumbing connections, or defects.

This rain data helps us better understand inflow and infiltration patterns and how they may impact operations at our wastewater treatment plants.
