g. DESCRIPTION: Per the Reporting Party: A blockage in a city main sewer line created by wipes caused the material to release out a manhole, onto the street and into a storm drain that leads to Sycamore Canyon Creek. The release has been stopped and sewer main flow restored. A vac truck is on scene to remove material from the street (approximately 50 gallons) and crews will sanitize the area. Approximately 700 gallons of the material entered the storm drain and is unrecoverable. The distance from the storm drain to the creek is 750 feet. Visual inspection by employee of where the storm drain discharges into the creek showed that the material has not made it there yet. An investigation is still underway.
