SAWS Crews Cleaning Up Sewer Spill Near Leon Creek

San Antonio Water System crews are responding to a sewer spill that occurred at 10000 W. Commerce Street near Leon Creek.

The spill was the result of heavy rainfall inundating sewer lines, which are in an active sewer construction zone. (See attached TCEQ notice for more details.) No adverse impacts are expected since the spill has been heavily diluted by stormwater.

Improvements in this construction zone are part of the work required by San Antonio’s agreement with the U.S. EPA to address capacity constrained sewer infrastructure across the city. For an interactive map and details on sewer project construction, visit www.saws.org/sewer.
