Central Ohio Sierra Club Clean Water Campaign
Downtown Columbus, Ohio

Fifth Avenue Dam Project Nearing Completion

The Fifth Avenue Dam, a lowhead dam which was a threat to both public safety and clean water, has been removed. There are additional reconstruction activities that will happen in 2013 to complete this project.

Please click here for a detailed update of the Fifth Avenue Dam. Click on the email link to thank Mayor Michael Coleman for the progress made up to date.

We hope to see the removal of another similar dam under Main St. in downtown Columbus.


Columbus provides sewer services to much of central Ohio, 1.1 out of 1.5 million people. Billions of gallons of raw sewage are discharged from the system each year without treatment. Learn More
