We're hoping it will dissipate because of the current and the sun.
It could have been from heavy rains, old piping, or road work that was underway nearby. We are still trying to determine the cause. But for now, at least the sewage has stopped flowing.
We're not going to go out and say the waters are safe, but it looks like it's getting there. As far as safety, we can't say for sure where it is safe, especially with the heavy rains.
This spill is such a large magnitude. We have never seen this before. It's pretty bad.
There's no real estimation. It could be anywhere from weeks to months.
There's no indication of these signs coming down any time soon.
The surf spots are still not deemed safe.
The sun has played a really big role. It's really good news for us.
Right now, the tides are taking it out. Should the wind change, it could come right back into shore.
It looks like all around the bacteria levels are going down. Nature is repairing itself.
It kind of seems that they're trying to make a bigger deal of it then it actually is as far as control issues.
They are here, but they are very minor. They aren't high priority because they aren't known to transmit any disease.
They wanted to hold off on the results because they are confusing. Usually, the indicator bacteria are consistent with each other: Either they're both up or they're both down.
For the most part, we've been pretty lucky and the current has been taking the sewage straight out to sea. But that could change.
The Health Department is aware of the problem and they are continuing to work on a plan. We hope to release more information next week.
