PUBLIC ADVISORY This is a public advisory to the Citizens of the City of Clarksburg from the Clarksburg Sanitary Board. The Clarksburg Sanitary Board owns and operates a wastewater collection and treatment system. The collection system is a combined system, in which all sanitary sewers and storm sewers drain into the same system. During rain events, the amount of wastewater collected could exceed the system’s capacity to carry and effectively treat. The collection system is designed to relieve this excess water by way of 55 permitted combined sewer overflows into the West Fork River and Elk Creek. Please be advised that when these combined sewer overflows are discharging, there is potential for health risk from contact with the streams. You should avoid contact with the water during these overflow events. Should you have any questions regarding this advisory, please contact Drew Eddy at the Wastewater Treatment Plant at (304)624-1626.
