Reports and advisories
Combined sewer overflow (CSO): sewage mixed with rainwater spills from a shared sewer system. Sanitary sewer overflow (SSO): sewage spills from a sewer meant to carry sewage separately from rainwater. Blended discharge: wastewater that skipped some treatment is mixed with treated wastewater. Treatment bypass: wastewater skips one or more treatment steps.

Reported volume per year
Gallons (axis: K thousand, M million), summed from the 591 reports that gave a volume as a number (1 did not).
1 of 592 discharge reports gave no volume as a number; only numbers are summed. 1 report gives more than 5 billion gallons for a single discharge, which looks like an entry error; it is not summed.

Hours with a discharge or advisory status per year
Hours with a discharge or advisory status each year under DirtyWaterWatch rules; 2026 to date.

How these charts are counted
We count each discharge once. Where a source publishes notices and confirmed reports, we use confirmed reports for an operator's month when available; otherwise we use notices. We combine revisions and exclude duplicate state reports copied by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Monthly and yearly totals appear separately. Status hours follow this site's rules. Shaded gaps mean missing coverage, not zero discharges.
