HISTORY OF THE PROJECT

The City of Norman’s Stormwater Division is responsible for the maintenance of a vast network of stormwater inlets, flumes, vegetated channels, and storm sewer lines. Many of the City’s inlets are decades old and built of brick and mortar. Over time, the brick and mortar inlets have demanded an outsized maintenance effort. Intent on reducing the maintenance burden, staff compiled a list of the inlets in most need of replacement (found above). The list was further reduced to maximize effect and meet budgetary constraints. The project contract was approved by Norman City Council in August 2022.
