The untreated wastewater entered an unnamed tributary of Browns Creek approximately 1,800 feet upstream from the primary waterway. Browns Creek is within the Cape Fear River Basin. Remediation of the issue was initiated immediately upon awareness. The discharge was terminated within 4 hours of discovery. Additional remediation and stabilization efforts are being planned to alleviate future events. The Department of Water Resources was notified of the event on June 20th, as required.
