Spring is Here; Time to Reroute Sump Pumps

Spring is Here; Time to Reroute Sump Pumps 

Reminder to Willmar residents who may have permits to discharge their sump pumps into the sanitary sewer (Nov.-Mar.): your sump pump discharge must be sent outside by April 1st.

Residents without a permit must direct their sump pump discharge to the yard or street year-round. Just a few sump pumps discharging into the sanitary sewer system in the same block can overwhelm lift station pumps and cause backups in the lines.
