@cbsnewyork: A health advisory in Westchester County couldn't have come at a worse time, considering the holiday weekend and the heat wave. A power outage at the Yonkers Sewage Treatment plant has resulted in hundreds of millions of gallons of untreated, raw sewage discharging into the Hudson River. Westchester County health officials say people should avoid recreational activities along a stretch of the river until further notice. Read more at our link in bio.

How does raw sewage accidentally get discharged onto a river? Why would this even be an option in happening?

You can't convince me these "spills" aren't dumpings. They happen to frequently.

A power outage? So the plant didn’t have any valves or something to shut down manually so this wouldn’t happen? They need to launch and investigation into this

Ok so I guess no one went to school in these comments. NYC has an old sewer system. Once treatment plants fill up the rest of the water is sent into the rivers and other large bodies of water around NYC. Rain ends up mixing with sewage thanks to the old sewer system. Because there was just a storm the plants filled up more and had to release out a lot more sewage.
