Hilton Head Public Service District (PSD) will conduct smoke testing and manhole inspections of its sanitary sewer system on Monday, April 21, weather permitting. The work will occur in the Spanish Wells Road area between Miller Road and the Silver Moss neighborhood, including the following streets and neighborhoods:
- Bluebell Lane
- Oakview Road
- Freddie’s Way
- Sam Frazier Retreat
- Sadie Common
- Muddy Creek Road
- Pink Sands
- Bryant Road
- Spanish Wells Cottages
- Timbercrest
- Silver Moss
- Tansyleaf
The testing is performed to identify any breaks in the sanitary sewer system, uncapped cleanouts, and unauthorized connections, and to prevent infiltration of stormwater into the sanitary sewer system. It is a best-practice of sewer system maintenance. The smoke used is odorless, non-toxic, non-flammable, and is not harmful to people, pets, or house plants. It does not create fire hazards and does not stain clothes, drapes, or furniture. Hilton Head Fire Rescue is notified of the testing.
