CARSON, Calif.—Los Angeles County sanitation workers say the cleanup and repairs in the wake of last week’s sewer pipe collapse are making good progress.

On Dec. 30, a 48-inch sewer pipe burst and sent an estimated 8.5 million gallons of sewage through the Dominguez Channel into Los Angeles Harbor, and flooding the neighborhood of 212th Street and Moneta Street in Carson.
