Odors can be many things and sometimes misleading. At the same time odors can indicate a problem that needs immediate attention for our public safety. If you come across an odor that can be described as having a sewage smell, it is best to contact the District Monday to Friday 7:30 am to 4:30 pm at (408) 378-2407, press 7 so our team can confirm the origin is not related to our sanitary sewer system.
