Huntington residents can be good neighbors by sweeping debris away from storm drains. In this video, Carrie Denvir of the Huntington Water Quality Board explains why it's important to keep our storm drains clean and how to report a clogged catch basin (using the Huntington WV 311 app or the 311 online platform at www.cityofhuntington.com).

Work continues on upgrades to our wastewater treatment plant in Westmoreland.

In the first photo below, construction crews are preparing our former lagoon area for four new secondary clarifiers. As wastewater leaves the aeration basin, flock is formed. That flock will settle in the bottom of these clarifiers so that clean water rises to the top.

The clean water will then exit the secondary clarifiers and go to our new ultraviolet disinfection system before the water is discharged into the Ohio River. In the second photo below, you see an area of our plant that is being refurbished to contain a series of weirs along with the new ultraviolet disinfection system.

The ultraviolet disinfection system will kill any f***l coliform and E. coli bacteria in the water. It also will allow us to do away with our current chlorine disinfection system, making the treatment plant a much safer environment for our employees and the surrounding neighborhood.

This work is among the first steps of a $196 million treatment plant renovation project, which will occur over the next six years. The renovations will improve safety conditions for our employees; support economic development growth in Huntington and the surrounding region; allow the Sanitary Board to meet state and federal environmental guidelines; and make the wastewater treatment process more efficient, ultimately saving rate payers hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.

The Huntington Water Quality Board today approved a resolution for engineering services to expand the design area for a drainage solution for the hillside along the 2100 block of Enslow Boulevard. It will take approximately 90-120 days to collect data and devise the best solution on how to carry drainage from the hillside to Fourpole Creek before work begins.

With leaves changing color and falling from trees during the next several weeks, we would like to remind residents about the importance of keeping leaves out of our storm drains and the options for disposing of leaves that pile up in your yard.

Leaves can clog catch basins and storm drains and cause flooding and maintenance issues for Huntington Stormwater Utility and Sanitary Board crews. This can result in precious public funds having to be spent on an avoidable problem rather than going toward important infrastructure improvements.

If you see leaves or other yard debris covering the top of a catch basin lid near your house, remove it with a rake or shovel. If the catch basin is clogged and isn't draining properly, you can report it on the Huntington WV 311 non-emergency service request system, which can be found at www.cityofhuntington.com or in the Apple and Google Play app stores.

Proper ways to get rid of your leaves include:

🍁 Mulching. Mulching leaves with a lawn mower. Mulching can provide nutrients to your lawn to keep it healthy.

🍁 Composting. Composting leaves also can provide healthy nutrients for your flower or vegetable gardens.

🍁 Bagging. The City of Huntington will collect up to four bags of leaves each week with your household garbage.
