Are they part of the public record that anybody can request to see? I was thinking I'd whip up a story about a college ecology class assignment on water quality!!! But I need to know who to tell it to and if they would even have maps of the system, especially the entrances. I can only find one in my town.

'urban planning' is a good cover too. - try the public works department; - university libraries often have this stuff Posted by mountainman Hey, does anybody know how to get ahold of storm drain maps, like, what City dept. would I ask?

It'll be streets or Drainage or Utilities or something). He said he was from "Bates Brothers Contracting" or some such shit. My part was the young student working as a courrier for extra cash. He got them to make us the copy over the phone, and I went in to pick it up the next day. Since I'm so clumsy at talking to people I practiced my line the whole drive: "Hi, I'm here to pick up a package for Bates Brothers." . Worked very well. If you live in a bigger city, just tell them is part of the Public Information Act and they gotta give you the info. The case for making up a story is that they can refuse to give you the information if they have a good reason to think you might do something damaging with it. "It's funnier that way."
