Sump Pump and Footing Drain Program SURVEY

SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM INFLOW/INFILTRATION PILOT STUDY RESEARCH SURVEY

ROWE Professional Services Company would greatly appreciate a moment of your time to complete the following survey. This information will be utilized by Grand Blanc Township in planning for future projects to decrease clean water flows into the sanitary sewer system. These clean water flows, which are mostly rain water, result in basement backups and sewer overflows into creeks. The ultimate goal is to keep clean water out of the sanitary sewer.

If you would be more comfortable talking to an Engineer, please feel free to contact Mr. Dean A. Oparka, P.E. project engineer at ROWE on his cell phone 810-701-8217. Mr. Oparka will be available to take your calls from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mr. Oparka will have a blank copy of the survey on hand and will be asking the same questions you see below. If you would like to talk to a township official, please feel free to contact Roger Buell at (810) 424-2620
