1,000-gallon wastewater spill was due to clogged drain
A clogged drainage line was being blamed for causing about 1,000 gallons of wastewater to spill Sunday at the Aliamanu Military Reservation.
The spill is believed to have started Sunday evening because of excessive backflow from a clogged drainage, the Army said. The spill was contained in the military reservation's drainage canal and did not reach the nearby Salt Lake neighborhood, the Army said.
The line was cleared and Army work crews disinfected areas that were exposed to the wastewater.
