Project Schedule for the week of January 27-31, 2020

Information released by Chelan County Public Works

Do you live in a canyon in our beautiful valley?

Residents with canyon drains on their properties are asked to make sure drains are free of debris to avoid flooding from rainwater and snowmelt. Common maintenance problems include overgrown vegetation; debris and yard waste dumped into ditches, or deposited from previous flooding; filling in or reducing the capacity of a watercourse; and the installation of structures (fences, sheds and walls, for example) that restrict or alter a drainage’s natural flow.

If a culvert or ditch along a county roadway needs cleaning, visit our Service Request page online: https://www.co.chelan.wa.us/public-works/forms/report-a-problem
