Sewage Spill Hits Arkansas River | Colorado Springs News
Description
Pueblo, Colorado, faced a sewage spill into the Arkansas River near Confluence Park after a busted wastewater pipe inside a stormwater line — thankfully contained by noon Thursday. Authorities have issued a “stay out” advisory for downstream communities including Avondale, Boone, Fowler, Manzanola, Rocky Ford, Swink, La Junta, and Las Animas through Monday, August 31, 2026, warning of harmful bacteria that threaten both aquatic life and public health — so no fishing, kayaking, or swimming until then.
