Local News in Brief : Cabrillo Beach Reopens
After a two-day closure, Cabrillo Beach in San Pedro reopened Thursday after county health officials determined that the water was not contaminated by a 3,000-gallon sewage spill into Los Angeles Harbor.
The spill occurred Tuesday when a pipe broke at the city-operated Terminal Island Treatment Plant. The sewage, which officials said had undergone some treatment and was about to go through a chlorination process when the pipe broke, was funneled into the harbor through storm drains.
