Clearing this helps with parking lot, loading docks and your building flooding and causing damage to your properties.
Generally speaking, you’re usually responsible for drains inside the boundaries of your property, while the sewerage company is responsible for lateral drains, which are outside of property boundaries, and sewers.
How to Maintain a Drainage System, find member companies on SFPMA
- Allow rain to help settle the loose soil before working the field
- Driving directly on the tiles can crush the pipe and ruin the tile. Straddle the pavers instead for the first year.
- Back-fill the open trenches carefully, so as not to damage the pipe
- Clean up unused pieces of pipe and do not use the open trench for garbage disposal
- Do not work the land if wet or moist with excess water
- Rotate the location of cattle hay feeders
- Clean drainage boxes once a month if present. Drainage boxes trap sediments
