Hundreds of thousands of gallons of partially treated sewage spilled into the Russian River County Sanitation District Treatment Plant property last Friday as a storm rolled through the area and knocked out power for a few hours.
SAN FRANCISCO â Starting late Friday night and continuing into the early morning hours of Saturday, the power outage combined with a large influx of stormwater into the treatment plant to produce a 277,000-gallon spill of 'secondary treated wastewater,' according to officials with Sonoma Water, which owns and operates the plant.
Sonoma Water officials said Thursday that they sent environmental specialists to the area who found no impacts to land or river creatures.'Secondary treated effluent has had the large, inorganic material removed, and much of the organic material has been biologically neutralized,' Sonoma Water officials said.
