DeKalb County Consent Decree: A Historical Perspective

DeKalb County’s sewer system is one of the largest and oldest in the Southeast United States. The system spans more than 2,600 miles of sewer lines and a large portion of the system is over 50 years old. As the County grows, the maintenance of the sanitary sewer system has become an enormous task. Over time the system experienced sewer spills, for which are prohibited by federal law.
