The 1996 Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments requires all public water systems to provide residents with an annual water quality report referred to as the “Consumer Confidence Report."

The CCR provides the water department with the opportunity to share information regarding drinking water with its customers.

The City of Milwaukie is committed to protecting its community’s water quality from the impacts of sediments in our local streams, wetlands, rivers, and groundwater. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified erosion as the single largest significant cause of impaired water quality in rivers, streams, and wetlands. Sediment deposition is a contributing factor in the decline of Salmonoid populations in our region and a reduction in flood storage.

The Fats, Oils, and Greases (FOG) program exists to reduce/eliminate sanitary sewer overflows. The leading preventable cause of non-weather related sanitary sewer overflows nation-wide has been build-up and blockages from FOG material restricting the flow of sewage. Blocked or restricted sewer pipes can cause raw sewage to back up into homes or businesses, or overflow into streets and streams.

The e-permitting system is a great resource to help organize, track, and plan a project, as well as check inspection results, schedule inspections, read comments, pay fees, and upload documents. 

The city contracts with Clackamas County to perform electrical plan reviews, electrical inspections, plumbing plan reviews and commercial plumbing inspections. The city also contracts with Clackamas County and the City of Happy Valley for various inspections when regular staff is on leave.
