ABC is sharing its list of dangerous parallel grates with Lawrence Jeter, City of Atlanta construction manager to get them reoriented the right way. He's going to be in charge of working with Watershed to get all those grates that were installed incorrectly (a lot of that going on with the sewer work) fixed.
Send yours here - the more we can track down right now, the better!
