Abstract

The article reports that St. Petersburg, Florida dumped almost 10 million gallons of wastewater into Tampa Bay, Florida after flooding from Tropical Storm Collin inundated its sewer system. The move was undertaken to ease pressure on the sewer systems and lighten the overload that the storm caused on wastewater treatment facilities in the area. City officials will meet with officials from Florida Department of Environmental Protection to determine if the city overstepped its wastewater permit.
