Combined Sewer Overflow Reporting

State regulations (314 CMR 16.00) require the City of Cambridge to notify the public when certain events occur that result in untreated wastewater being released into surface water--a river or stream. Notifications are posted below and also sent out via email. All Data are preliminary and subject to change. Subscribe to Cambridge's Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Alerts.

 

City of Cambridge Public Notification Plan

The City of Cambridge submitted to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) a Public Notification Plan describing how it will comply with the requirements of An Act Promoting Awareness of Sewage in Public Waters, signed into law in 2021. MassDEP issued an approval of Cambridge's Public Notification Plan on June 16, 2023. The Cambridge Public Notification Plan was modified to reflect reporting of the "average" discharge (not "median" discharge) from data reported to MassDEP and EPA for the prior three years..

A combined sewer overflow (CSO) occurs when a large storm overwhelms the combined sewerage system causing rainwater to mix with wastewater and discharge to a nearby water body.  This relief measure prevents sewage backups into homes and businesses.  Cambridge owns combined sewer outfalls that discharge to the Charles River and Alewife Brook.  When a CSO occurs at a Cambridge-owned outfall, there will be a notification displayed in the table below.

The Massachusetts Water Resource Authority (MWRA) and the cities of Boston, Chelsea and Somerville manage their own combined sewer outfalls, including CSO reporting.  These communities must be contacted directly for information regarding their CSO discharges. To see where all CSO outfalls are located, download this MWRA map of MWRA and community CSO sites.

PUBLIC HEALTH NOTIFICATIONS

State regulations require local public health departments to provide notice to the public when these discharges may create a risk to public health, including when a discharge lasts for two or more  hours.  Public health warnings related to sewage discharges will be posted on the Cambridge Public Health Departments News & Events webpage.

Public health officials recommend avoiding contact with water bodies during rainstorms and for 48 hours afterwards, as there may be increased health risks due to bacteria or other pollutants associated with urban stormwater runoff and CSO discharges.  To see what Cambridge is doing to address pollutants from stormwater runoff please visit our stormwater management website and learn how you can also help reduce stormwater pollution. For more information on water quality data in the Charles River and the Mystic River please see: Charles River Watershed Association Water quality Reports & Data and the Mystic River Watershed Association Mystic Daily Boating Advisory.

Note: The CSO discharge table below provides details of recent discharges.  Data for CSOs is preliminary and subject to change.  Discharge duration and volume are estimates and are subject to calculation limitations, including meter data reliability, unmonitored downstream conditions such as river level, and MWRA system operations.  See the following links for information on past CSO annual reporting and yearly CSO discharge summaries.  Annual reporting data for each calendar year will be published by April 30 of the following year. Updated/revised data is indicated by ( ).
