A Staggering 17 Million Gallons of Sewage Disposed Into the Ocean in Los Angeles

(The plant s standard pipe dumps treated sewage into the ocean five miles [eight kilometers] offshore and 190 feet [58 meters] deep.) According to a Hyperion spokesman, it was the most sewage discharged out of that single small pipe in a decade. According to the plant s managers, the leak accounted for just 6% of the plant s daily sewage load.
