MOORESVILLE, NC – On January 9, 2024, the Town of Mooresville had a discharge of
untreated wastewater of an estimated 10,800 gallons at Reed Creek Pump Station, 253

short period of time. The untreated wastewater was discharged into Reed Creek. Upon
inspection, the spill was not of a magnitude to cause immediate danger to human health
or the environment.
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1C requires the owner or operator of any
wastewater collection or treatment system to issue a report when an untreated
wastewater discharge of 1,000 gallons or more reaches surface waters.
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality Water Resources Division
was notified of the spill on January 9 and is reviewing the matter.
