2012 WINTER STORM EVENT
STORM DEBRIS CLEANUP
For Little Rock Residents
WHAT: The City of Little Rock continues to work diligently to pick up storm debris curbside throughout the City. The City’s contractor, Ceres Environmental, anticipates completing the first pass through the City by the end of this week and will immediately begin their second pass through the entire City. The City encourages citizens to bring any remaining debris from the storm event out to the curb as soon as possible to avoid being missed during the contractor’s second pass through the city. Residents do not need to call 311 to have their storm debris picked up.
Ceres will work contemporaneously in all seven of the City’s wards. You can view the progress of the storm debris cleanup at http://www.littlerock.org/citydepartments/publicworks/solidwaste/2012-winter-storm-update.aspx. This webpage includes maps of each ward of the city and these maps contain street-level detail of which streets have been picked up and which have not.
If residents are inclined to remove their own storm debris, they may drop it off free of charge at Reservoir Park or Interstate Park. These locations are open from 8 am to 4:30 pm on Monday through Saturday.
WHO: City of Little Rock Residents Only
WHERE: City-wide
WHEN: March 13, 2013
