High flows caused by an intense rain storm on 8.21.2019 resulted in the discharge of a combination of sewage and stormwater from the Pine Street CSO. This is an authorized discharge intended to protect the sewer system, to prevent overflows from other parts of the sewer system, and to prevent backups into homes and other buildings. Our flow instrumentation has malfunctioned, we are estimating a flow of 100,000 to 250,000 based on previous overflows of this size and duration.
