Sewage Leak Reported At Century Woods Apartments
November 7, 2016
The Town of Century has cleaned up a sewer leaking into an apartment complex driveway.
A lift station stopped pumping and filled sewer lines, which caused about 25 gallons of sewage to leak from a manhole onto the driveway pavement of the Century Woods Apartments on West Highway 4. The leak was reported by apartment management about 9 a.m. The lift station alarm was working property but due to the time of the day, no one reported the alarm. The “tenants were at work,” according to a public notice.
The lift station was repaired and the area was disinfected. “There is no potential risk to the public health, safety or welfare,” the town said.
