OJRSA is ready for bad weather

The Oconee Joint Regional Sewer Authority is monitoring the winter storm expected to hit our region this weekend, and has a plan to ensure continuity of operations for the wastewater treatment and conveyance system.

The agency anticipates power outages and has emergency generators at many of its pump stations, but if the community observes sewer spills or other matters related to wastewater, they can notify the OJRSA at 864-972-3900. The agency will respond as quickly as safety allows.
