The new study, released on Monday by PennEnvironment Research & Policy Center, includes an interactive map to show where sewer overflows most frequently occur.
“From the tiniest tributaries of the Schuylkill to the mighty Delaware, people love to walk, hike, boat, fish, and sometimes even swim in and around Philly’s amazing waterways,” said Hanna Felber, clean water associate at the PennEnvironment Research & Policy Center. “We should be able to enjoy our waterways without worrying about billions of gallons of sewage flowing into rivers and creeks.”
According to PennEnvironment, while the City of Philadelphia has made improvements to reduce sewage pollution, more work needs to be done.
