City of Leavenworth, Kansas

Sanitary Sewer Overflow Transparency Report

 City crews work to keep the main sewer lines clean and maintained. There is occasionally a break in a sewer line that can lead to discharge of untreated sewage, possibly reaching the stormwater drainage system. We urge Leavenworth residents to contact us immediately if they see signs of a sewer discharge at 913-682-1090. Crews respond to system user requests for service 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

 The City of Leavenworth can only verify the City main lines.  A lateral line is the line that runs from a residence or business to the City  sewer mains.  We cannot verify blockages in lateral lines. This must be done by a licensed plumbing company.

Information on Sanitary Sewer Overflows is made available to the general public as part of the City's transparency efforts.
