@RosaliaFodera Great News, WRAL is less than 10 miles from a great spot on the Neuse River to have lunch. 20 Raleigh Beach Rd, Raleigh, NC 27610

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

Could you please add:
1. Location
2. Amount
3. The nearest body of water impacted.
Would also love to see a map on your website show the public where SSOs occur.

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

Thank you @Raleigh_Water for sharing this information publicly. You are setting a great example for other cities and towns and @NCDEQ. The public deserves to know when there is raw sewage in our environment. https://t.co/rwGlD7BmFW

[Raleigh Water @Raleigh_Water]

Please no wipes in pipes. We had a sewer spill today because a sewer line was blocked with a collection of flushed wipes & paper towels. Please do your part in helping us protect the environment by always disposing of wipes & paper towels in the trash & NEVER in the toilet.

We currently have 2 rivers in Moderate flood stage: Tar River at Tarboro and Neuse River near Goldsboro. Please be mindful of flood roadways and don't forget "turn around don't drown!"

[Raleigh Water @Raleigh_Water]

You may have noticed its been raining a lot. During wet periods Falls Lake pulls double duty by providing 80% of our drinking water and storing excess stormwater to reduce flooding in downstream communities. The lake is 8' abv normal pool, but still has storage capacity remaining

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

@Raleigh_Water @NCDEQ Thank you.

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

Got this from a concerned citizen today. 2200 block of Millbank Street in Raleigh. A silt fence can not do its job if you run over it. If you see this happing please let me know. @Raleigh_Water @NCDEQ

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

To make matters worse the Neuse basin is getting lots of rain over 24 hrs. The state, private companies, and local governments need to keep raw human and animal waste out of our water.

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

It took two days for this information to be released in a public notice. Make sure to avoid waters downstream of this spill into Tuckahoe Creek. @NCDEQ https://t.co/RJDNufaKNJ

To meet demand, Pittsboro & Fuquay plan to buy water from Sanford. Uh-oh, Sanford's water is contaminated w #PFAS @HawRiverkeeper @UpperNeuseRK @NCDEQ @NCPolicyWatch

As lawmakers gear up for 2021’s long session in the North Carolina General Assembly, they would be prudent to consider this record-setting storm season as a dire and urgent recitation of the old adage, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” https://t.co/bMFwSDTuZP

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

I am calling on @NCDEQ @Michael_S_Regan to work with us and municipalities across the state to update NC’s Pollution Spill Notification System to keep people and waterways safe. Please join me in asking for this common-sense update. https://t.co/iDwROVN8Ul

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

Tell @ncdeq: Update your spill notification system for the 21st century to keep North Carolinians informed, and their waterways safe. https://t.co/iDwROVN8Ul

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

Heavy rain should not be a reason to dump raw human waste into our waterways. Improve the system.

[Upper Neuse RK @UpperNeuseRK]

Thank you @Anna_M_Johnson for reporting on this. Would not have seen it otherwise. @NCDEQ must improve SSO reporting so that citizens know when their water is being polluted.
