Emergency Response

Any time a large amount of hazardous material is spilled, there is a threat that the pollutant has or will contaminate one of our creeks. As such, our technicians are available to respond to a spill, day or night, to make sure the purity of our natural waters remains intact. The spill and any contaminants within the receiving body of water must be properly cleaned up.

Emergency spills can be anything from a large amount of vehicle fluids flowing towards a storm drain, commercial or private sanitary sewer overflows, and releases of other hazardous materials from construction or industrial sites. If you suspect an illicit discharge of hazardous substances has occurred, please call us and explain the situation. We would be happy to send someone out to investigate. 

Please call the Stormwater Division at (405) 739-1040 during business hours or (405) 739-1383 after hours or on weekends if you encounter a spill.
