The lighted symbols relay real time information from the City of Everett's computerized system that monitors the wastewater system. Please be assured that City of Everett staff reviews all CSO data on a regular basis and determines if and when a CSO has actually occurred. The confirmed CSO events are included in our annual CSO report.
Make Informed Decisions
The purpose of this web page is to give the public the opportunity to make decisions about the use of waterways during heavy rains.
CSOs occur most frequently between the months of October and May, when we typically receive the most rainfall. During the CSO discharge and for up to 24 hours following the discharge, water users near the CSO locations could be exposed to bacteria in the water.
