  "INCIDENT_REPORT": "Incident Description: Yesterday evening, crews responded to an overflow near 2230 Bannerman Road. A weather-related power outage resulted in a loss of power to Pump Station 155. The station?s emergency generator activated as designed and maintained operations during the outage. Upon restoration of power, an electrical imbalance occurred, causing the pump motor to trip. As a result, pumping operations were interrupted and the wet well level increased until approximately 10,600 gallons of wastewater overflowed into an adjacent low-lying area. Crews responded promptly and were able to fully recover the overflow. The affected area was then cleaned, disinfected, and deodorized. Wastewater Type: Untreated Cause: Power Spill Volume: 10,600 Volume Recovered: 51,000 Waterbodies Impacted: N Clean-up Status: Complete Clean-up Actions: Vacuumed/pump truck, Applied disinfectant, Raked and disposed of debris Agencies Notified: [removed]",
