The perspective from those in the know is welcome. Check out the resources below that were used as part of the research for this post. San Bruno is directly implicated for the spills by these sources but the SSF WQCP is not. Do you think they are talking about one and the same? http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/01/31/BABS1BPLR1.DTL http://www.baykeeper.org/ Very well, sir.

To say that we (SSF/SB WQCP) sent nasty ingrediants that makes people sick and kills wildlife to the bay is a bit of an exaggeration. During the storms in question The plant performed as it was designed. At very high flows we are required by our state permit to bypass certain processes so that the system doesn't back up and cause raw sewage to flow to the bay. I can asure you that our effluent (discharging water) to the bay had been treated to the states required level (chlorinated to kill pathogins and dechlorinated). As for the raw sewage spill in san bruno I cannot comment on but i do Know these type of incidents can occur in any city for many reasons and are not necessarily due to neglect( sometimes mother nature gets the best of us). The financial issues in regard to maintaining a cities infrastructure are not unique to san bruno(all cities face these).Any how just wanted comment, any questions drop me a line, take care.
