Staff from the Street Department was called in with a reported manhole overflow at 3:50 pm. Upon arrival the Street department cleared the blockage and full flow was restored by 5pm. Staff inspected the area and it appeared sewer may have entered the storm water system and made it to the Waters of the State.
