Your Little Rock Wastewater provides several functions along

Function
The Collection System Maintenance Division is responsible for all maintenance of and repairs to all assets within the Little Rock collection system as well as to all Little Rock Wastewater facilities. The Collection System Maintenance Division is comprised of the following three departments: Cleaning/Inspection, Construction/Repairs, and Fleet Services. These departments complement each other in accomplishing internal and external tasks that provide sanitary sewer services, excellent collection system maintenance, and customer satisfaction.
Cleaning/Inspection:
The Cleaning/Inspection department works continuously to meet established annual goals and to provide the necessary support services to maintain and maximize the effectiveness of the Little Rock Wastewater sewer collection system. Specifically, the Cleaning/Inspection department is responsible for providing the following services associated with the sewer collection system: cleaning, inspection, right-of-way/easement clearing, and emergency response. Through conduction of these services allows the department to ensure that customer complaints are properly handled, that collection system preventive maintenance needs are met, and that sanitary sewer overflows are strategically limited.
The Cleaning/Inspection department also offers support services to the Construction/Repairs department. These support services include, but are not limited to, sewer line locates, inspections for capital projects, street wash-downs, and mainline repairs. In addition, the Cleaning/Inspection department offers support services to the Engineering department. These support services include the CCTV of Overflow Mitigation Project (OMP) areas, smoke testing, and service line inspections in response to requests from the Permits department.
Construction/Repairs:
The Construction/Repairs department works continuously to meet established annual goals and to provide necessary services to maintain and maximize the effectiveness of the Little Rock Wastewater sewer collection system. Specifically, the Construction/Repairs department is responsible for providing the following services associated with the sewer collection system: main line repairs and replacements, service line repairs and replacements, and installation of new mains in order to replace old community service lines.
The Construction/Repairs department collaborates with the Cleaning/Inspection, Plants/Facilities, and Engineering departments in an effort to eliminate the following: severely damaged main lines; inflow from corrupt private service lines in the street right-of-ways; old community service lines; and those areas within the collection system that are prone to overflow occurrences. These activities aid in determining those assets within the collection system for which funding should be utilized in order to maintain the collection system under capital investment projects and O&M maintenance.
