ILLEGAL DEBRIS DUMPING

ILLEGAL DEBRIS DUMPING

 

The Harris County Flood Control District has received a number of calls from residents reporting the dumping of tree limbs and other debris in area bayous, creeks and tributaries.  Discarding debris into area bayous and creeks can obstruct the flow of storm water, impede drainage, cause flooding and deteriorate water quality.

 

We strongly urge all residents to properly dispose of all debris.  Tree limbs should be cut, tied together and appropriately placed for heavy trash pick-up. Other debris should be placed in garbage cans or other trash receptacles.

 

Please report items related to area bayous and creeks to Harris County Flood Control District’s Citizens Service Center at 713-684-4197.

Contact:  Rosio Torres - (713) 881-3090
