Democrat donor David Gadis (https://www.opensecrets.org/donor-lookup/results?name=David+gadis&cycle=&state=DC), CEO of DC Water is quite literally flooding the zone with shit. He has flooded the Potomac with 300 million gallons of liquid shit, elevating e coli levels to 10,000x above EPA levels.

According to his bio on DCWater.com, he was hired to do the exact opposite of this thing: Under his leadership, DC Water is delivering on its $2.7 billion commitment to build a massive system of deep tunnels and other infrastructure to nearly eliminate combined sewer overflows to the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers and Rock Creek in the nation’s capital.

What to know about the disastrous Potomac sewage spill

The spillage, which resulted from a section of the Potomac Interceptor sewer line collapsing last month, resulted in an overflow of roughly 243 million gallons of wastewater as of Feb. 6, according to DC Water.

Although public health officials have said the spillage did not impact drinking water quality, residents are still encouraged to avoid contact with the Potomac River.

President Trump weighed in on the matter in a Truth Social post Monday, blaming local and state Democratic officials in Maryland and saying he would direct federal efforts to assist in the operation.

Here is what to know:

On Jan. 19, a section of the Potomac Interceptor along the Clara Barton Parkway in Montgomery County, Md., collapsed. The DC Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE) says the interceptor carries up to 60 million gallons of wastewater daily from Virginia and Maryland to Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant on the banks of the Potomac in southwest Washington.

The collapse resulted in a “significant quantity of untreated sewage” flowing into the Potomac, according to the DOEE.
>>
DC Water, a local water utility, said on Feb. 6 that roughly 194 million gallons overflowed from the collapse site in the first five days after the incident, with about 49 million gallons overflowing in the time since. The utility noted that the estimated peak discharge of wastewater, roughly 40 million gallons per day, accounts for about 2 percent of the Potomac’s total flow during the period.

But the Potomac Riverkeeper Network (PRKN), a local environmental advocacy group, estimated on Feb. 5 that the collapse resulted in roughly 300 million gallons discharged into the Potomac to that point. Betsy Nicholas, the president of the PRKN, told The Hill on Monday that estimate was based on data from DC Water regarding how much wastewater flows through the pipe daily.

Nicholas said Dean Naujoks, the Potomac riverkeeper, requested data that DC Water has from software that measures how much water flows through the pipe daily. DC Water turned down his request, though.

Nicholas said Dean Naujoks, the Potomac riverkeeper, requested data that DC Water has from software that measures how much water flows through the pipe daily. DC Water turned down his request, though.

“How do you expect us to figure this out? We don’t have the monitoring of what volume is in your pipes, so the best we can do is look at historic data,” she remarked.

The Hill has reached out to DC Water and the DOEE for further details on the latest spillage data.

It's a good thing the president has maintained a strong EPA to combat this kind of thing.

A sewer broke, but I had to read halfway into your post before I learned that. You made it sound like democrats broke it on purpose...

This article might fit the board's 48 hour rule, but the event happened 1/19.

All this article adds is that E. coli levels have returned to acceptable levels as of 2/5.

This is old news, and the only recent update (over a week ago) to it is that the major concern is over.

Who needs a source? Democrats are crooks that hinge their power on people wanting to be 'good people'. The only thing that Dems have going for them is an organized multi-billion dollar propaganda campaign run by literal homosexuals and retards that drank the kool aid.

Yeah maybe this is why he's trying to eliminate overflows you fucking moron.

This wasn't an overflow though. This was one of these sewage tunnels rupturing.

Did the article refer to it as an "overflow" or a "line collapse"?
Nobody here needs a civil engineering degree to discern that, just a pair of working eyeballs and some basic English literacy

Buddy I am a civil engineer and boy do I have news for you
An overflow when unintended is one type of the types of system collapse
>>
>>1490352
Retard an overflow is when sewage from a sewer line spills out of said line into rivers or streets. They're not supposed to do that, and if they do it's usually because something collapsed or broke.

>An overflow *is* a collapse
Well, that doesn't disprove my original statement it actually supports it, this guy was hired for the sole purpose to stop this sort of "overflow"/"line collapsing"
>>
>>1490359
Huh a quick Google search yields that you have no idea what the hell you're talking about and you're just inventing meanings for words

Overflow = sewage exits the system because capacity is exceeded or flow is blocked — even if the pipe itself is intact
Common types:
Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO)
Happens in older systems where stormwater + sewage share one pipe. Heavy rain overwhelms capacity and excess is discharged into rivers by design.
Example: DC Water manages a combined system in parts of Washington, DC.
Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO)
Occurs in separate systems when blockages, pump failures, or infiltration cause backups and spills.

Line collapse = structural failure of the pipe itself.
Causes:
Aging infrastructure
Corrosion
Ground shifting
Tree root intrusion
Poor installation
