On September 17, the City of Greensboro had a discharge of approximately 1.3 million gallons of untreated wastewater from Reedy Fork Lift Station, located at 6591 McLeansville Rd. The discharge occurred for approximately 23 hours and was caused by Hurricane Florence rainfall that flooded Middle Reedy Fork Creek, which in turn flooded the lift station causing it to shut down. The untreated wastewater entered Middle Reedy Fork Creek, tributary of the Cape Fear River basin. The downstream area was thoroughly inspected with no impact being found.
