The Town of Century reported a 400 gallon raw sewage spill Wednesday, none of which was recovered.

The spill happened on B Street, just off Mayo Lane about 2:20 p.m. and was ongoing for about 10 minutes.

A manhole overflowed due to a lift station failure, according to a report filed with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The report stated that cleanup was completed by applying lime.
