🚨PSA: Do not flush wet wipes and rags down the toilet.

Paper towels, wet wipes, cleaning wipes, cosmetic wipes, disinfecting wipes, and feminine hygiene products should never go in the toilet -they might clog your pipes. Only human waste and toilet paper are OK to flush.

Check out our new video showcasing our dedicated Field Services Technicians (FSTs) in action as they clean up an easement in a local canyon. 🌳✨

In this video, you'll learn how our FSTs maintain easements by clearing debris periodically. This is important so they are able to easily access manholes in case of an emergency situation such as a sewer spill. It's a true testament to the power of teamwork and environmental stewardship!

Check Out District’s Retrofitted Televised Truck!

The District owns and operates two television trucks that are called closed-circuit television (CCTV) vehicles. These trucks are equipped with specialized computers and a closed-circuit camera to visually inspect the sewer pipes.

Have you seen our new mural? The District recently completed a mural in the Field Services Technicians Vactor building. The mural is an interpretation of our coastal landscape, featuring the Batiquitos lagoon connection to the ocean. 🌊

Thank you to local elementary school teacher Lori Davis and Nicholas Fitzgerald for planning and painting our amazing mural! Batiquitos Lagoon Trail Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation
