Officials: Don’t swim, fish in the Willamette River for 48 hours

Portland sewers overflowed into the Willamette River after today’s heavy rain, causing a potential public health risk.
City Environmental Services officials warn against any recreational activity such as jet skiing, water skiing or swimming during which water could be swallowed.
People who fish should wash their hands after touching the water. Anyone who wants to eat fish caught in the Willamette River should cook them thoroughly to kill bacteria.
In many areas of Portland, sewage mixes with stormwater runoff in what is called a combined sewer system. When the combined sewer system receives too much runoff, it overflows into the river, carrying bacteria from untreated sewage.
While health risks from combined sewer overflows are unknown, the public should stay out of the river for 48 hours after the rain has stopped, officials said.
