Combined Sewer Overflows and Untreated Discharges Reported in Date Range

Subscribe to alerts and notifications!   - Subscribe here to receive email or text notifications when new public alerts, sewer overflow and release incident reports, or unpermitted discharges are reported.

Public Alerts   are submitted by Wastewater Treatment Facilities (WWTF) for prompt public awareness of untreated discharges and their locations. These alerts have been directly reported by the WWTF and may not be reviewed by the State yet. WWTFs are required to submit a public alert as soon as possible, but no longer than one hour from discovery of an untreated discharge or no longer than four hours if the operator does not have telephone or internet service at the location or they are working to control or stop the untreated discharge.

Incident Reports   provide additional details, including an estimated volume of the discharge and corrective actions. Incident Reports are required to be submitted within 12 hours of discovery and available below. Click "View" to see the report. The Wastewater Treatment Facility link provides more detail about the facility.
