Sanitary Sewer Overflows Reported in Big Marsh Swamp Watershed

On July 6, 2025, the Town of S Pauls experienced two sanitary sewer overflows that impacted the Big Marsh Swamp receiving waters due to Tropical Storm Chantal. The events occurred during the late morning and early afternoon, between approximately 10:15 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., and were promptly addressed by our team.

Incident 1:

An overflow occurred from a manhole located across the street from 679 W Broad Street. This incident resulted in approximately 1,200 gallons of untreated wastewater entering a nearby branch that flows into Big Marsh Swamp.

Incident 2:

A second overflow occurred at the Wastewater Treatment Plant located at 601 S Elizabeth Street, releasing approximately 2,000 gallons of wastewater that also reached Big Marsh Swamp.

As of our latest inspection, no evidence of fish kills or visible environmental damage has been observed in the affected waters. Cleanup and containment efforts were initiated immediately upon discovery, and both incidents were brought under control by 1:00 p.m. This notice is being issued in accordance with environmental regulations that require public notification within 24 hours of such events. We encourage all residents and stakeholders downstream of the affected areas to remain informed.
