3 Million Gallons of Raw Sewage Spilled into San Francisco Bay

The spill occurred in Richardson Bay between 5:30 and 8:30 this morning (2/1/08).  It is thought that the sewage did not contain chlorine which is used to treat sewage.  They currently do not know how the spill occurred.  Do not come into contact with the water.  There is a picture of the spill at abc7news: 2.7 million gallon sewage spill in bay
