2.4M Gallons Of Sewer Overflow Spills Into River

An estimated 2.4 million gallons of sewer overflow spilled Tuesday into the Back River, according to the Baltimore City Department of Public Works.

The sewer overflow spilled Sunday shortly before 12:30 p.m. for more than two hours after heavy rainfall in the area.

DPW officials said the storms coupled with construction upgrades at the plant led to the overflow after rainwater infiltrated sewer lines that were already well above normal levels.

The government has done more to poison the bay then any farmer ever did! The only reason they want to attack farmers is to shut down their operation so people forget how to feed themselves without government assistance.
