Description Of Incident: High flows caused by an intense rain storm on 3/16/25 resulted in the discharge of a combination of sewage and stormwater from CSO 00 3 -Bailey Ave. The overflow event was prolonged due to high sewer flows carrying rocks and other debris downstream of the overflow structure, which then accumulated and caused a partial blockage of the sewer line. 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.
