Sewage Overflows Into Mission Bay
- Share via
Nearly 25,000 gallons of sewage spilled Saturday into the Sail Bay area of Mission Bay, a county health services worker reported.
About 10:15 a.m., pump station 17 lost power, causing sewage to back up and overflow in the 700 block of Pacific Beach Drive, the spokesman said.
Power was restored by 1 p.m. Warning signs were posted 400 feet on each side of the spill.
The county will test the water quality and remove the signs when it is safe for swimming and other water activities.
