Last week I mentioned they were dredging in Newport. Well, I work for a company specializing in Hazardous Material Spills, and a nice little report just came through....

California Emergency Management Agency
Hazardous Materials Spill Report
DATE: 08/16/2012

City of Newport Beach

1. Sewage = 2800 Gal(s) SEWAGE

g. DESCRIPTION: RP states that a dredging company hit a sewer force main in Newport Bay resulting in the release of 2800 gallons of sewage into the Bay. The release is contained and caller states that the release has dissipated into the Bay. Newport Bay has been impacted.

There's a saying... "Dilution is the solution." But I'm still not fishing here for a while. I'd suggest you guys do the same.
