OK, here goes...
Monday, the crew is off in honor of Dr Martin Luther King's birthday. All county offices are closed.
The rest of the week:
The Belt-loading gang is down in the Michigan Hill area (SW part of the county).
The SW area is also getting treated to a trim and shave by the slope mowers and crews responding to service requests for vegetation removal. This is usually brush and tree limbs that cause sight distance obstruction, or start to encroach into the travel area of the roadway. It also could be brush that blocks water drainage into ditches. Most often these jobs are in response to calls from citizens or school bus drivers, and sometimes from law enforcement or other county employees.
If you see tree limbs or vegetation that could cause a hazard you can report it to us by calling 360-786-5495 during business hours, or buy using our web reporting form. You can also use this form for reporting any other hazards that you may see such as potholes, vandalized or missing traffic signs, road-killed deer that obstruct traffic.
The sweepers and vactors are working in the NPDES areas, and there are crews working at both the Rainier Drop box and Tilley Campus.
HOWEVER.... If it SNOWS... all bets are off. Depending upon the severity of the weather, sanders and plows will be dispatched based on our road priority system. That information is available at our website
