ECWCD Press Release ---- on discharge
The East County Water Control District is issuing a statement to the public that there has been treated reclaimed water discharged from the Florida Governmental Utilities Authority's (FGUA) Wastewater Plant into its canal system.
The FGUA will be correcting this problem by building a deep well injection system. This could take a few years. East County Water Control District is recommending that citizens do not eat fish that are caught in Lehigh Acres in the Able Canal west of the Williams Street bridge, nor in Hickey's Creek Canal or in Canal 47-30-3, (just west of the Lehigh Regional Medical Center), until further notice or until the deep well injection system is completed.
The East County Water Control District's canals are not classified as recreational and swimming is never permitted. Please call the FGUA at 368-1615 or the East County Water Control District at 368-0044 for more details.
