I would be fined for dumping my camper shite water in a river.
If they were doing it outside of an emergency declaration the city would be fined as well.
Still may very well be fined.
There are laws that allow these types of excursions when there is no viable alternative.

The City is under an EPA Consent Decree for failing to do sewer rehabilitation and the Mayor can be put in jail if it’s violated.
BR was under one for decades. Not sure if they still are after the latest plan to go private because they were in violation so much.

Hmmm
This might be a time I’m cheering on some frickups at the sewage and water board to break things and not fix it

City to continue dumping sewage in MS river until SWB main fixed.
I made this meme 6 months ago and it fits this topic perfectly. It's almost like I saw it coming.

I just imagine a private company doing the exact same thing.
Then I imagine a private company owned by a republican doing the exact same thing
The escalations are incredible

That must suck. My grandfather lived in Venice. It has been almost 30 years since I have traveled down there. I used to like walking up and playing by the levee.
We had a similar issue with salt water in Bayou Lafourche back in the summer of 2000 and maybe once or twice since.
They built a water control structure first in the Company Canal in Lockport and then moved it to just south of the Water Treatment plant in Lockport in Bayou Lafourche. The problem hasn’t resurfaced again, but I wonder what would happen if there is a pump failure in Donaldsonville or a chemical spill that would lead to an extended closure of those pumps.
I know with the river they just can’t build a gate to stop the saltwater, but how deep are the intakes for the water treatment plant down there. You would think they would truly to suck more water closer to the surface where the water is fresher. Unless the saltwater is that high all the way down there.
I also heard they are trying to boost the Belle Chasse plant to get enough water out of it to pump it down the parish making the Venice plant a backup or redundant.

Talking to Lower Plaq people it is a failure of government more than some insurmountable problem.
They had the money to solve it, but spent it elsewhere.
