The Hyperion Water Reclamation Plant completed repairs and cleanup last week after a debris backup caused 17 million gallons of sewage to spill into the Playa Del Rey Beach on July 11, but some residents are still frustrated by a lingering sewage smell and delays in the city’s reimbursement program.
El Segundo residents had previously complained that the sewage spill caused them headaches, burning eyes, nausea, and respiratory problems.
