IMPORTANT PANDEMIC IMPACT NOTICE
BE ADVISED: AS WE ALL DEAL WITH THE CURRENT VIRAL PANDEMIC, RESPONSE TIME TO PUBLIC COMPLAINTS IS BEING IMPACTED. COMPLAINT INVESTIGATIONS AND ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS ARE BEING DELAYED, DUE TO THE VIRAL PANDEMIC’S IMPACT ON RESOURCES AND STAFF. AS ALWAYS, PDEQ PRIORITIZES COMPLAINTS TO ASSURE AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE. COMPLAINTS THAT ALLEGE A POTENTIAL THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH OR SAFETY ARE HIGH PRIORITY COMPLAINTS AND ARE INVESTIGATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. COMPLAINTS NOT MEETING THIS CRITERIA, WILL BE FLAGGED AS LOW PRIORITY AND WILL BE INVESTIGATED AS TIME PERMITS. ANONYMOUS COMPLAINTS, NOT MEETING THIS CRITERIA, WILL HAVE THE LONGEST RESPONSE TIME DUE TO PDEQ’S INABILITY TO FOLLOW UP WITH THE COMPLAINANT FOR INFORMATION AND/OR TO ADVISE THEM OF THE COMPLAINT STATUS.
Complaints For Unincorporated Pima County Only!
PDEQ does not have jurisdiction regarding buffelgrass in the City of Tucson, Marana, Sahuarita, Oro Valley, or South Tucson. Complaints received within these jurisdictions cannot be processed by our department.
