Call the Stormwater 24-Hour Hotline or use SeeClickFix to report any type of pollution. Also call 911 for hazardous material spills. Do not clean up the material if it is unsafe to do so. Staff at the hotline can direct you to the appropriate agency to help with non-stormwater pollution.
Pollution can also be reported online; however, online reports received outside of normal business hours (7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Friday) are not viewed until the next business day. Please call the Stormwater Hotline when reporting pollution outside of our normal business hours to ensure your report reaches City staff more promptly.
