Sewer pipe for future building broken off and sewage coming out. I have put a bucket over the pipe to help contain as much as possible. Also, the pump station is flooded.
Strong sewage smell in the street on and off on 4th street between Maple and Waldron. Comes and goes, but probably is not good. Worried about sewage backup into house main.
Strong sewage smell the last several days. And then today, our toilets stopped flushing properly. Nothing in toilets, but water barely goes down.
The whole street smells like sewage
Sewage leaking out of white pipe into the grass area and onto the street
Should I expect to smell shit all summer. This is ridiculous. Waves of sewer wafting through the air every once in a while, but on a pretty much daily basis.
Hello! We still have a very bad sewer odor at 210 E. Gilbert. I first reported this issue in November, 2024. It has not been resolved. We tested the water in the creek, and the ph levels are high, indicating sewage in the water. Here is the report below. Please contact me at 812-322-7997. Maryellen May My name is Jessica Will and I am a volunteer for the Adopt-A-Stream program. I usually monitor the Griffy Lake site, but recently learned about water quality concerns in my neighborhood. So, this month, I also tested two sites along the creek running through Matlock Heights and into Cascade Park. I believe there are strong indicators that our creek contains sewage and that sewage is being fed into Cascade Park. Please see results and observations below. Site 1 results pH: 8 Nitrate: 2 Nitrite: 0 Oxygen: 5 Site 2 results pH: 9 Nitrate: 3 Nitrite: 1 Oxygen: 5 Observations Elevated pH and nitrate levels may be indicators of sewage or other contamination. Smells of sewage and detergent were strong at both sites. Several manholes are placed along the stream, suggesting sewer lines run through the creek. Please see attached image for site locations (blue pins). I'm writing to share these results and concerns. I'm also seeking your guidance as to how to get the city involved in additional testing and potential sewage line repair.
Ongoing sewer smell coming from general area of Cascades creek running behind our house. Always an occasional issue but lately (past few weeks) a very PUNGENT odor happening multiple times a day. Possibly a pipe is leaking?
I came home and the water in all my toilets seems to have like exploded all over the bowl... was there utility work being done today? Is my water safe to drink? Its kind of unnerving to come home to this without explanation.
