Ruptured sewer line spills more than 100,000 gallons in Arlington

The Trinity River Authority said public drinking water has not been affected.

The Trinity River Authority says no public drinking water has been affected after a ruptured wastewater pipeline caused issues in Southeast Arlington.

The authority reported the ruptured sewer line off Mirabella Boulevard. The outflow exceeded 100,000 gallons, prompting notification to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.

The Trinity River Authority said the rupture does not affect service to customers and no public drinking water has been threatened.

People using private water wells within a half-mile of the spill should use distilled or boiled water for personal use.
