What Is Sanitary Sewer Overflow Cleanup?
Sanitary sewer overflow cleanup is the response to a release of wastewater from the sewer system—before it reaches the treatment plant—into the environment or a building. In Orange County, SSOs can affect streets, storm drains, and property. Response includes containment (berms, covers, booms), recovery of wastewater by vacuum extraction, disinfection, and disposal at an approved facility. Storm drain protection and no illicit discharge are critical; we document for MS4/NPDES and municipal reporting.

Our Sanitary Sewer Overflow Cleanup Process
Spill Containment & Diversion
We deploy berms, sandbags, or vacuum equipment to contain the overflow and prevent sewage from reaching storm drains, waterways, or neighboring Orange County properties.
Sewage Extraction & Line Clearing
Standing sewage is extracted, and the blockage or failure causing the overflow is identified and cleared so the sewer line returns to normal flow.
Surface Sanitization
All affected outdoor surfaces—concrete, soil, landscaping—are flushed, treated with disinfectant, and lime-stabilized if needed to neutralize pathogens.
Documentation & Regulatory Support
We provide a detailed cleanup report including photos, volumes, and timeline to assist with any required reporting to the Orange County Sanitation District or local health department.
