Officials in the city of Long Beach, California have temporarily closed beaches for swimming after receiving a report of a sewage spill.
On Friday, the city said that according to a December 30 report from the California Office of Emergency Services, “approximately two to four million gallons of untreated sewage was discharged into the Dominguez Channel,” which “terminates into the Los Angeles Harbor at the Port of Los Angeles.”
The sewage spill occurred in the city of Carson, California following the failure of a 48-inch sewer mainline.
“State law requires temporary closure and posting at beaches in these situations, out of an abundance of caution, until the water quality meets State requirements,” the city said in a press release Friday.
City health officials are currently monitoring the water quality on affected beaches, and the monitoring will “continue until results comply with State water quality standards.” Long Beach has roughly seven miles of public beaches.
In a statement on Thursday, the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts stated that they had become aware of the spill in Carson.
