Lansing CSO
Have you ever heard the phrase "more than meets the eye"? Well, the Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Control Program is kind of like that. While many of the construction projects you see around town are working to improve Lansing's roads, that's only one part of the effort. The CSO Control Program itself has little to do with what "meets the eye" (or rather, meets your tires), and everything to do with what's going on below the surface...
To learn more about the Lansing CSO Control Program (and what exactly is going on below the surface), check out the CSO story.
