90 DAY SURVEY: Report The Sewer Smell

How We Can Report the smell

We need everyone's help!!
You have the opportunity to report to Pima County Wastewater Management the various locations, dates, times of day, frequency, odor strengths, characteristics and weather conditions associated with odors you smell coming from their system. The system includes the Roger and Ina Road plants, eight outlying treatment facilities and the entire wastewater conveyance system. You may call Laura Fairbanks, (520) 740-6532, each and every time you smell this odor. Wastewater Management will be tracking this information for the next 90 days as baseline data for their odor control plan. Ellie Towne is a member of the Citizen Involvement Committee working on this plan.
