Sewage spills into Rialto flood control channel
Inland Valley Daily Bulletin
RIALTO - Hundreds of gallons of sewage leaked into a flood control channel this morning before crews were able to seal off the leak, fire dispatchers said.
San Bernardino County fire officials reported seeing sewage bubbling out of the ground on Ayala Drive north of Casmalia Street at 6:46 a.m.
Crews said 200 to 300 gallons were spilling into the channel per minute, said fire dispatch supervisor Donna Mueller. Hazardous materials workers, San Bernardino County flood control and Caltrans officials were called to the scene north of Interstate 210.
Rialto firefighters eventually located the problem and sealed the leak. The cause of the leak was not immediately known.
