From Bruce at Badger BloggerJust in time to kick off this weekend’s Lakefront Festival of Arts, too. Awesome!
MMSD Executive Director Kevin Shafer tells the Journal/Sentinel:
“This month’s overflows of combined sanitary and storm sewers in central Milwaukee and eastern Shorewood poured 2.9 billion gallons of untreated sewage and water into local rivers and Lake Michigan, the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District said today.
This was the largest combined sewer overflow since the district’s deep tunnel opened in 1994.”
Whether you’re cleaning it up from your basement floor, or inhaling it at Summerfest in a few weeks, you won’t be able to get away from it. The poop is everywhere.

It's only 2.9 Mil gals! What would happen if I spilled a qt of oil on my grass( by accident of course)?I would have the book thrown at me. What kind of fine will MMSD get for doing their big dump? $250.00 probably!
