July 29, 2026 - NOTICE TO COLUMBIA COUNTY RESIDENTS & BUSINESSES

If your home or business has sustained damage from the heavy rain & flash flooding weather event on July 29, 2026, please use the New York State Damage Self-Reporting Tool to report your damages.

Submitting a report does not guarantee FEMA assistance, but it helps New York State assess the overall impact of the storm. If the damage is significant enough, New York State may request a Presidential Disaster Declaration, which is required before any FEMA Assistance can be considered.

Please note that this reporting tool is only for damage to homes and businesses. Damage to public buildings, roads, bridges, and other public infrastructure is reported through a separate process by local governments and a limited number of eligible nonprofit organizations.

Survey: Damage Self-Reporting Tool: Homes & Businesses

Thank you for taking the time to report your damages. Your information helps ensure New York State has the most accurate assessment of the storm's impacts in Columbia County.

Work to begin mid-June on sewer infrastructure within Stottville and Kings Acres Sewer Districts

The of Stockport Sewer Department will be taking proactive steps to address inflow and infiltration (I&I) within both the Stottville and Kings Acres Sewer Districts. This effort is part of an ongoing commitment to maintain reliable infrastructure, protect the environment, and control rising wastewater treatment costs.

Inflow and infiltration occurs when stormwater or groundwater enters the sanitary sewer collection system through sources such as foundation drains, sump pumps, roof downspouts, cracked collection pipes, cracked/damaged sewer manholes or faulty rim seals . During heavy rain events or snowmelt, this excess water can overwhelm the sewer treatment system, leading to increased treatment costs, potential system backups, and unnecessary strain on municipal infrastructure.

Therefore, reducing inflow and infiltration helps prevent sewer overflows, protects our waterways, and keeps utility costs manageable for our residents.

Work is scheduled to begin mid June and the duration is anticipated to be three or four weeks. Specifically, our Town Engineer (CPL) will be working with our Town Sewer Department and Arold Construction to clean and camera the sewer infrastructure. At this time there is no need for entry into private homes or business. However, you will see crews in the streets accessing sewer manholes and perhaps accessing sewer manholes off street that are located within existing sewer easements.
