Starting Monday October 9, 2023 and lasting through Friday November 3, 2023, The Dalles Public Works crews will be cleaning stormwater catch basins throughout the City. The purpose of this work is to protect property and the environment. Cleaning catch basins allows for efficient drainage into the storm water conveyance system.
Crews will begin on the east side of town working their way west over the next few weeks with expected completion by October 27, 2023. The week of October 30, 2023 crews expect to clean catch basins in the Downtown Area.
