City of Adairsville recently issued the following announcement.
FLUSHABLE DOES NOT MEAN FLUSHABLE Flushable HANDI-WIPES CLOGS Flushable wipes are clogging sewer pipes! Flushable wipes do not dissolve in the sewer system. Even if you just flush one, the wipes collect in pumps and valves causing clogs. Clogs in sewer pipes can lead to dangerous sewage spills into the community and cost money to maintain and repair. Keeping our community safe from sewage spills and keeping maintenance costs down are important. You can help by remembering this simple phrase: 'Think Before You Flush'. Put trash where it belongs... in the trash. City of Adairsville Public Works Department (470) 529-3015 SEWERS THINK YOU FLUSH 2013 Goldstreet Design Agency, Inc.
