Get Involved
A requirement of the consent decree is for engagement of a public participation process led by a Citizens Advisory Committee. To begin the public participation process Metro Water Services selected a community advisory committee representing various constituents groups from Nashville neighborhood, business and environmental groups.
The public participation phase is divided up into three different stages:
- Education and History of CSOs and Consent Decree (Spring/Summer 2010)
- Presentation of Alternatives (Winter/Spring 2011)
- Presentation of the Final Long Term Control Plan (Summer 2011)

The Metro Water Services team and its Citizens Advisory Committee held a series of three meetings at East Library on February 18, 2010; Lentz Health Center on March 11, 2010, and Mt. Zion Baptist Church on March 23, 2010 to educate the community regarding Nashville's combined sewer system and Metro’s Long-Term Control Plan to minimize combined sewer overflows into the Cumberland. Additional meetings focusing on possible solutions will be held in the near future.Please visit this website for meeting updates or become our facebook fan (Nashville Metro Water Services) for more meeting information.
