Seems like a weekly event - yet another big spill on the Patapsco river.
Standard warnings - avoid contact with water , wash off with soap / hot water.
Sad part - it was deep in the Sunpaper - shows how it is so common that it is no longer considered news.
The excuse this time - pumps shut down to avoid damage from snow melt debri.
We were in the middle branch yesterday... The water looked like chocolate milk.
I have a feeling more of these incidents will happen with budget shorfalls/cuts. Just like the flush tax going down the toilet, the municipalities will just eat the fines rather than make the improvements. You know s _ _ _ does flow downhill and right into the bay.
Reeltor - it is on page #4 - around the region - story #2. Kinda dead center of the page. Reported by Eileen Ambrose.
Report says 30 million gallons It is diluted sewage - like that makes much differance.
Diluted sewage is like 30 million gallons of diareha. We had a open sewer pipe running from Boca Raton into the ocean which has been shut down when they saw the reef and coral were dying.
