Jackson Park Area Stormwater Separation and Treatment Project

This project will construct a network of stormwater pipes to collect runoff from streets and alleys and will remove pollutants from the runoff so it can be discharged to the Snohomish River. Removing stormwater from the combined sewer system will reduce the occurrence and severity of Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) events into the Snohomish River and free up needed capacity at the wastewater treatment facility. This project will also provide stormwater treatment capacity for a future remodel/renovation of the east half of Jackson Park. Funding for a majority of the project costs is provided by a grant from Washington Department of Ecology. Overall project costs are approximately $1.5 million.
