Sewage spill reported in Lula

A sewage spill has been reported in Lula.

City manager Dennis Bergin said the sewage spill was on Cater Street 200 feet west and Athens Street 200 feet north at a manhole.

The preliminary estimate of volume discharged in a minor tributary of Hagen’s Creek is 3,280 gallons. The initial review of the transmission line shows that an unknown object caused the back-up at the manhole, Bergin said.

City work crews have corrected the blockage and continue to monitor the flow conditions for performance and are monitoring the environmental conditions surrounding the site.

Any questions regarding this incident may be directed to Lula City Hall at 770-869-3801.
