Unfortunately too many wastewater treatment plants were not built to handle the capacity today’s population needs. Sewage overflow events occur way more often than in the past allowing semi treated and untreated sewage to be poured into local creeks, rivers and other waterways after precipitation events. Thanks for doing your due diligence in making the public aware of the danger to them.
