Sewage Spill Update

Clearlake City Manager Alan Flora announced the distribution of water filtration systems to 79 households with wells affected by the Robin Lane sewage spill, starting today. These systems will disinfect against microbiological contamination. Flora directed sewer system inquiries to the Lake County Sanitation District. Hydrologist Dr. Annjanette Dodd forecasts a temporary spike in fecal bacteria as contaminants flush, preceding long-term recovery. Well testing continues. The deadline for tank and filtration applications is the 28th.
