“The letter from EPA, dated June 20, 2017, represents an amicable resolution of spill events reported in 2015 and 2016, as well as unreported and under-reported spill events from 2012 to 2016. The DeKalb County Government has undertaken an aggressive sewer cleaning program aimed at the most congested lines based on age, repeat overflows and known maintenance problems.”
