Sewage leaks occur when wastewater from sewer systems escapes into the environment. This can happen due to damaged pipes, blockages, or heavy rainfall that overwhelms the system. When sewage leaks, it can contaminate soil and water sources, posing health risks to humans and wildlife. These leaks can lead to unpleasant odors and attract pests. Communities often need to address sewage leaks quickly to prevent further damage and protect public health. Regular maintenance of sewer infrastructure is essential to minimize the risk of leaks and ensure safe disposal of wastewater.
