  "INCIDENT_REPORT": "On 9-20-2026 at 8:05 pm utility staff responded to a call from our switchboard for water escaping from the lift station NP-31 located at 7110 Oleander Ave. Upon arrival staff noticed untreated raw sewage escaping from the wet well at a rate of 10 GPM onto the rocks within the station and driveway. The initial inspection discovered that the station was not receiving full FP&L line power due to faulty FP&L equipment. Staff reported the outage and deployed a backup generator to engage the pumps and the spill ceased at 11:15 pm. Approximately 1900 gallons escaped onto rocks within the station and driveway. Staff used a vacuum pumper truck to recover approximately 1710 gallons. Approximately 190 gallons percolated into the soil or 10%. Staff also spread 5 pounds of lime to disinfect the affected area. No surface water or public access areas affected. Sampling is NOT required. All regulatory agencies and PSL internal notifications are proceeding according to protocol.",
