A sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) occurs when sewage
is unintentionally released from Cary's sewer system,
homes, or businesses before it reaches the treatment plant.
WE ARE PLEASED TO REPORT THAT
NO REPORTABLE SEWER OVERFLOWS
OCCURRED DURING THE FISCAL
YEAR (FY) 2025 REPORTING PERIOD
OF JULY 1, 2024 TO JUNE 30, 2025.
This is due to excellent preventative maintenance,
monitoring, and proactive system repairs that keep
the sewer system working optimally.
