Today, the City of Everett experienced several combined sewer overflows (CSOs), notably a few near Jetty Island due to higher than normal rainfall amount. For specific locations of the discharge areas and current CSO status, please go to: http://www.everettwa.org/CSOMap/CSOMap.aspx
Contact with fecal contaminated waters can result in gastroenteritis, skin rashes, upper respiratory infections and other illnesses. Children and the elderly may be more vulnerable to waterborne illnesses.
