The National Weather Service is forecasting rain through the early morning hours and into the afternoon. As little as 0.3 inches of rainwater can trigger a combined sewage overflow (CSO) into the Chicago River when the system gets overwhelmed.
Here’s a tip:
Quicker Showers
A 10 minute shower can use as much as 40 gallons of water. Try a five minute shower instead.
