"Change is also being noticed and commented on by our customers. They support our effort. They will also continue to point out where we falter -- that's OK too. We need to hear about what matters to our customers and then demonstrate our desire and ability to exceed their expectations...AND WE CAN!"

DWSD has teamed up with DTE Energy to help educate Detroit customers on how to use
electricity and water wisely. Click here for details.
Detroit residents are required by state law to disconnect downspouts leading to the sanitary sewer system. This is a requirement of all Michigan cities. Water from downspouts connected to the sewer system can overload the sewer system and can pollute our rivers and cause basement flooding.
