Emergency Storm Drain Program

Resolving flooding or water ponding problems that are caused by storm runoff from County-maintained roadways.

The Bureau of Highways and Bureau of Watershed Protection and Restoration is responsible for resolving flooding or water ponding problems that are caused by storm runoff from County-maintained roadways. Our road districts make an initial investigation of the problem to determine the scope of the project. Smaller jobs are handled by the road districts. Projects larger in scope and cost are managed by the Bureau of Watershed Protection who uses contractor forces to complete the work.

Requests for flooding and/or ponding assistance should be directed to the appropriate road district.  A supervisor will investigate your concern and respond to you within one week (one day if it is a hazard) to advise you of a schedule for the work. If the work needed to resolve your request is larger in scope, your request will be referred to the Bureau of Watershed Protection for prioritization. A representative from that bureau will keep you informed of the status of your request.
