The clog, at a spot about 400 feet southeast of the end of Green Acre Road, redirected approximately 5,500 gallons of raw sewage into an unnamed creek that runs into the Oostanaula River.
The department was notified of the spill at 10 a.m. Monday and had the problem resolved by 2:45 p.m. Crews removed the roots, thoroughly cleaned the sewer main and pumped the sewage out of the creek.
