The District maintains drains, culverts, and bridges within the Cooks-Devils Creek watershed. If you have any concerns or requests for maintenance of any of the District infrastructure, please contact the office by phone or email. The District investigates and reviews requests as they are received. Prioritization of the requested projects are done by each individual Sub District. Some factors involved in the prioritization process are cost-benefit, safety issues, and feasibility.
