Type: Category 1 Spill; Flow Exceeded Capacity (Separate Collection System Only) caused 49025 gallons of sewage to spill from Manhole at Marina Trunk Sewer, Section 1A (District 3) to Drainage Conveyance System that discharges to surface water, Paved Surface, Street/Curb and Gutter (2 3), Surface Water |
Other (specify below). To prevent future capacity exceedances in the Marina Trunk, Section 1A sewer, a project to construct a relief sewer is currently being designed. The design of the relief sewer is approximately 50 percent complete, with construction expected to begin in late 2024 and be completed in 2025. LACSD is also working with the City of Long Beach to reduce inflow/infiltration to the City sewers, which are the large majority of sewers tributary to MH 03 345. |
