16 inch Force Main Crack, Pearl Harbor, Oahu

We were just notified of a 16 inch force main crack near Naval Station 004 lift station off Mike 1 Pier in Pearl Harbor. About 3000 gallons of raw sewage flowed into a storm drain that empties into Pearl Harbor. Spill is ongoing. Navy has been instructed to post warning signs, sample, and do a press release.
