Advisory

On Mon April 1st & Tues April 2nd sewer cleaning will begin on Alexander from 148th - 151st. See link for more info.

The City of East Chicago has contracted with National Power Rodding Corp. to clean and televise the sewers in your neighborhood. Their crews will begin working on Alexander from 148th to 151st, Monday and Tuesday April 1st through April 2nd, weather permitting.
 
The cleaning process uses high-pressure water jetting equipment that may induce pressure changes in the sewer. Below are helpful tips to reduce any inconvenience during the scheduled work.
 
·       Keep toilet seat covers down
 

  • Run water down drains that haven't been used recently to make sure P-traps have water (to prevent odors from entering the basement)
 
  • Cover basement drains to prevent backsplash
 
  • Loosen caps or plugs on any exterior sewer service cleanouts.
 
Any questions, contact National Power Rodding Corp 219-312-666-7700
