SAWS Responds to Sewer Spill After Heavy Rains
(1/9/13)
SAWS crews are responding to a sewer overflow caused by heavy rain infiltration on the Northwest side.
Heavy rains overwhelmed a sewer main between Texas Highway 151 just east of Military Drive West downstream along Leon Creek to Marbach Rd., resulting in a spill of greater than 100,000 gallons. Because of high water flow from rains in the creek, no adverse impacts have been observed. SAWS crews will continue to monitor the area.
Customers are always encouraged to contact SAWS at 704-SAWS (7297) to report water and sewer main breaks on a 24-hour basis.
