Crews from the city Department of Environmental Services responded to wastewater pipe break in Pearl City this afternoon that spilled 5,525 gallons of raw sewage.

Crews arrived at the scene at 12:30 p.m. and secured the site at 1:45 p.m. The 21-inch reinforced concrete pipe broke near the intersection of Lehua and Second streets, sending 5,525 gallons of untreated wastewater onto Navy property behind Lehua Elementary School and into East Loch, Pearl Harbor.

A contractor was sent to repair the break.

The Department of Health and the Navy have been notified. Sampling will begin Wednesday morning.
