No Suwannee River Basin spills reported to Atlanta through 2018-10-15

Good news from GA-EPD! The forty spills reported to Atlanta since our last update included none in the Suwannee River Basin. So, according to the Georgia Environmental Protection Division, no spills were reported since mid-September from Valdosta, Lowndes County, Quitman, Tifton, or anywhere else in the Suwannee River Basin in Georgia, not even during Hurricane Michael.

[Brown Dog out, 09:31:38, 30.8484784, -83.3482902]
Little River below Troupville Boat Ramp 30.8484784, -83.3482902

Even more surprisingly, no spills were reported from Albany or Bainbridge during this period, despite their lack of power and extensive damage.

Wouldn’t you prefer to get this information updated daily, without waiting for me to pry it loose from GA-EPD and fight with spreadsheets? Your organization can sign up to ask GA-EPD to publish spill reports online the same day they get them.

No spills also does not mean no contamination, so maybe you’d also like to help with the new WWALS water quality testing program.

The data received from GA-EPD yesterday in response to a Georgia Open Records Act (GORA) request is shown in web form below; I sorted it by date for ease of perusal. Thanks to those at GA-EPD who compiled it and sent it.

For all the data from January 2015 through yesterday, see wwals.net/issues/vww/ga-spills.

Upon subsequent inspection of the upstream lift station records, it was found that the run times on both pumps at the Garlington Lift Station on the day of the spill were approximately double the average week day run times.Crew checked other downstream manholes in the collection system and found that levels were generally high throughout the system and no specific blockage was located. By 6:15 PM the flow stabilized and the manhole was no longer overflowing. The City's vacuum truck was mobilized to pump out the catch basins at Alplha Street and Ethel Street and at Alpha and Crawford Street. Signs were posted at the spill site and the locations where the sewage entered the storm water system (catch basins) and Tributary D of the Waycross Drainage Canal.91d74c2a-ab08-44d3-9b9c-81c0cd32b28191d74c2a-ab08-44d3-9b9c-81c0cd32b28191d74c2a-ab08-44d3-9b9c-81c0cd32b2812018-08-31110000

""A repair clamp was installed and the leak was slowed to a slow drip and instructions left for the repair crew to continue monitoring and pumping down, as needed, to maintain for final repair. The City crew also used the vac truck to vacuum up, approximately 20 feet in length, the bottom of the drainage ditch where the sewer had ran and settled.
The City will control the pump station and use two, 2,500 gallon septic tank trucks, to maintain the pump station during repair. 10" ductile iron piping will be replaced through the prefab concrete vault, grouted to seal the vault, and a new tap with a new air release valve, will be installed.
The contractor will excavate the right-of-way, bring in new fill dirt with top soil and re-grass.
Since Saturday, August 25th, the City has responded for inspection of the sewer vault and has vacuumed the vault 5 times, to maintain control of the sewer weeping in the vault."		1c349d21-bd7e-4a44-b736-f5f5a1547d2d1c349d21-bd7e-4a44-b736-f5f5a1547d2d2018-09-06000000

Due to excessive flow thru the clarifier, algae had sloughed off the weirs and clogged the drain. The water level in the clarifier had risen above the weirs and was draining into the scum pit. At this point, the flow overcame the scum pit pumps and the clarifier effluent overflowed from the pit into a nearby retention pond that drains to Knight’s Creek.""After cleaning the screen, clarifier levels returned to normal at 11:30 pm. We informed our Environmental Manager of the overflow, who immediately began sampling and monitoring the effected stream. To prevent an overflow of this type from occurring again, we added procedures to monitor clarifier effluent drains more frequently and will also increase cleaning frequency.
