Beginning in September, Clark County is expanding infrastructure to filter stormwater runoff from Northeast 99th Street between Interstate 5 and Northeast Hazel Dell Avenue. The upgrades will capture pollution and provide increased water quality treatment before runoff from the road discharges into Suds Creek.
Construction is scheduled to occur at night in September and October. Work will require lane closures. Travelers in the area can expect some delays. Drivers are reminded to slow down, pay attention and be patient in work zones.

Clark County Community Services’ staff developed a survey to collect this information.
Clark County Public Health has lifted its algae advisory at Round Lake in Camas. Water samples collected from the lake show water quality has improved over the last two weeks and toxin levels are no longer elevated.

Public Health encourages people swimming and recreating in the lake to watch for floating scum and avoid direct contact with water in those areas. Pets should not drink or have contact with water in areas of floating scum.
