City crews respond to minor sewage spill

SAVANNAH (Feb. 15) – City of Savannah Sewer Conveyance staff responded to a minor sewage spill yesterday at 785 King George Blvd. in Savannah.

Spill notification is being made via news release and area signage. All agencies (Georgia Environmental Protection Division, Health Department and the City of Savannah Office of Marketing and Communications) were notified per state guidelines.
