Des Moines River in North Iowa gets over 10,000 gallons of Minnesota wastewater

ESTHERVILLE, IOWA – A break in a wastewater force main in Jackson, Minn., early on April 8 resulted in raw wastewater entering the Des Moines River about 20 miles north of Estherville, Iowa.

The force main broke at about 1 AM. An estimated 10,000 gallons of wastewater per hour was flowing into a storm drain that drains into the river when the break occurred. Repair crews fixed the force main about 3:30 p.m. Saturday.

Iowa DNR staff said because of high volume and swift currents in the river the already dilute wastewater is not expected to have an impact.

Well those people down there have been drinking manure waste for years from up north so this is just a little bit different taste and probably not as deadly.

10,000gph*14.5 hours=145,000 gallons not 10,000 gallons
