According to NBC 10 in Providence, roughly 10 million gallons of partially treated wastewater were released into Mount Hope Bay yesterday as a circuit breaker failed at the city's regional wastewater treatment facility early in the morning. The water bypassed the pumps at Fall River's regional wastewater treatment facility after a circuit breaker failed during Saturday night's storm. The plant was back up and running but between the spill and the heavy rain, the Rhode Island DEM closed a section of Mount Hope Bay to quahoggers for the next seven days. The area closed is known as 'Growing Area 17' in Bristol nearby Roger Williams University.
