    Complaint Description and Writeup

    Spill reported by Bobby Nutt on morning of 3/28/12. JCA and SAW investigated. Line running to lagoons had ruptured. Because sewage was not currently being directed to lagoon system, what spilled was sewage located within line, and some backflow from lagoon 1. Estimated to be between 50,000 and 100,000 gallons. All sewage discharge was collected on west side of road and pooled in old mining pits. No discharge reached the stream.

    Advised Mr. Nutt once line was fixed to collect standing sewage and to lime area.
