Stormwater Management
In continuous efforts to protect our local waterways, the City of Newton has established a hotline to provide citizens with a method of reporting stormwater pollution or polluting activities. Please call (316)-284-6100 to report any of the following:
Individuals dumping anything in a storm drain, ditch, stream or creek.
- Individuals changing oil, antifreeze, rinsing paint brushes, or washing vehicles and allowing it to drain to the curb, storm drain, or local waterway.
- Excessive dirt or mud on roadways from construction sites.
- Polluted water (unnatural color, glossy sheen on water, dead fish).
- Overflowing sanitary sewer manholes.
- Illegal connections to storm drains such as processed water or wash water.
