EPA gives Fort Lauderdale choice in how to pay for sewage breaks

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. Floridas Department of Environmental Protection is giving the city of Fort Lauderdale a choice in how it will pay for a series of sewage breaks that plagued the Rio Vista Neighborhood for months. Either pay a hefty penalty or invest in environmental restoration projects. I think it is a long overdue wake up call we hope for the State of Florida, not just this individual city, Valenstein said. The new order now gives the city the option to pay a historic penalty of more than $2 million or invest in an in-kind project. Chaz Adams, a spokesperson for the City of Fort Lauderdale, told Local 10 that they have been in contact with the regulatory agency about the order, but have not decided how to proceed.

Again? Another broken pipe spews sewage in Fort Lauderdale

This month, the first spill was in the Rio Vista neighborhood on the south side of the Tarpon River. Two days after the sewage flow was stopped, the same pipe ruptured in Rio Vista on the north side of the Tarpon River. A day after that, a pipe on the same line ruptured under the Himmarshee Canal, right where the fix had been made on the pipe three years earlier.

Even though the city has been successful in ending the sewage flow at both breaks, that wont be the end of its sewage troubles. Rio Vista will still need a major cleanup and sanitizing, and its broken pipe will need a permanent fix.
