Sanitary Sewer Collections System Smoke Testing 

Oceanside Place Subdivision - 06.02.2025 through 06.06.2025

Brunswick County Public Utilities will be conducting smoke testing of the sanitary sewer collections system in Oceanside Place Subdivision, beginning Monday, June 2nd, 2025, through Friday, June 6th, 2025. Please be aware that you may see smoke emitting from the ground, manholes, sewer piping, roof vents, or gutters. To prevent the possibility of smoke entering your home, ensure water has been run in your sinks and showers/tubs to put water in your P-traps. This acts as a blockage to keep smoke from coming out of the drains in your home.
