Storm Sand Debris Sites Re-Open

 

As a result of the recent rain storms and resulting flood damage, the City of Duluth is re-opening the spring Road Sand Collection sites for homeowners to use (No contractors) for disposal of sand and gravel left by the storm. The sites are for sand and gravel only, no large rocks or brush please. The sites are for homeowner disposal, not contractors.

The collection sites are marked with black silt fencing and a sign. They are open to all Duluth residents to dump road sand from their yards, sidewalks, curbs, and gutters.  Sites are located at the following locations:

 

  • 34the Ave East and Valley Drive
  • Chester Bowl
  • Duluth Heights Community Club
  • Lester Park
  • Piedmont Community Center
  • Stowe School
  • Wheeler Field
  • Woodland Community Center 

 

 

Catch basins lead directly to our streams and Lake Superior, not to the wastewater treatment plant. Please do not dump anything into them.  Contact the City of Duluth at 730-4130 during business hours or 730-4100 on evenings and weekends to report any illegal discharge or dumping.

For additional information regarding this program, please contact Project Coordinator Chris Kleist at (218) 355-0598.
