Oregon municipalities operate under some of the most demanding environmental and infrastructure maintenance requirements in the country. Between DEQ’s MS4 Phase I and Phase II NPDES stormwater permits, ODOT lane mile reporting, and ongoing public accountability, your public works team doesn’t have room for vendors who don’t show up, don’t document, or don’t understand what compliance actually means on the ground.
Mid-State Industrial Service has been working alongside Oregon’s public works departments since 1970. We understand the permit language, the reporting cycles, and the operational pressure that comes with maintaining public infrastructure on a fixed budget.

What Oregon Municipalities Are Up Against
Oregon’s MS4 permit program requires cities and counties to actively reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff, and to document that they’re doing it. That means scheduled street sweeping programs, catch basin cleaning cycles, storm drain inspections, and maintenance logs that hold up to DEQ review.
When a catch basin fails, a storm drain backs up, or a line collapses, the clock starts immediately. Delayed response doesn’t just create a maintenance backlog, it creates liability, permit violations, and public complaints.
How Mid-State Supports Municipal Operations
Street & Road Sweeping
We provide scheduled and on-call sweeping for lane miles, intersections, downtown corridors, and residential streets, with documentation to support your MS4 annual reporting requirements.
Catch Basin & Storm Drain Cleaning
Regular cleaning cycles keep your stormwater conveyance system functioning and your permit status clean. We remove sediment, debris, and pollutants before they reach Oregon waterways.
CCTV Storm & Sewer Line Inspection
NASSCO-certified video inspection of storm and sewer lines, with same-day to 48-hour written reports. Identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, and structural defects before they become emergency repairs.
Drain Line Jetting
High-pressure cleaning for grease, sediment, and debris buildup in municipal drain lines. Restore flow capacity and extend infrastructure life.
Vacuum & Hydro Excavation
Non-destructive potholing and utility exposure for public works projects, protecting underground infrastructure while keeping crews safe and compliant with Oregon OSHA excavation standards.
Hydroblasting
High-pressure water cleaning for culverts, retention structures, and hard-to-reach infrastructure, without the damage of mechanical methods.
