SAN DIEGO—A lawsuit was announced Monday on behalf of a group of South Bay residents affected by raw sewage allegedly discharged from the South Bay International Wastewater Treatment Plant and flowing into the waters of southern San Diego County.
The complaint filed Friday in San Diego Superior Court alleges Veolia, which was contracted by the International Boundary and Water Commission to operate, manage and maintain the plant, has failed to prevent hundreds of such sewage discharges over the years.
