North Shore beaches closed as millions of gallons of sewage flow into Merrimack River – Boston 25 News

HAVERHILL, Mass. — Beaches in several North Shore communities are closed just as the heat starts building in New England.

The beaches closed after a massive wastewater pipe broke over the weekend and dumped millions of gallons of sewage into the Merrimack River.

The break occurred in Haverhill, in a pipe that carries wastewater from the main pumping station to the treatment plant.

Haverhill Mayor Melinda Barrett said this is one of the city’s largest and most critical wastewater pipelines, serving thousands of homes and businesses.

Mayor Barrett said that due to Friday’s torrential rainstorm, there was a break in a 42-inch sewer force main.

Crews responded to investigate and make repairs and found a second break as well.

The Mayor said that the second break indicates the damaged area is larger than originally believed.

As a result, about 8 million gallons of wastewater per day are being discharged into the Merrimack River, but the sewer system remains operational at this time.

The exact cause of the breaks is under investigation.

The Department of Public Health Beach Water Quality dashboard shows beach closures at Salisbury Beach, Sandy Point Beach in Ipswich, and Plum Island in Newburyport following the break.

The Mayor also assured that the city’s drinking water system is completely separate from this wastewater system and that drinking water remains safe.

Barrett said the public should avoid contact with the Merrimack River both in the vicinity and downstream of the discharge until repairs are completed.

As a Massachusetts native, he understands the issues Bostonians face and is eager to share their stories on the Boston 25 morning newscast.\n\nRyan grew up in Wilmington, where his family still lives, is a graduate of Wilmington High School, and earned his Eagle Scout award in his hometown. He didn’t have to travel too far down 93 to graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Journalism degree from Suffolk University. After graduation, he interned in NYC with ABC News 20/20 and then landed a job with The Boston Globe and Boston.com soon after.\n\nHis passion for broadcast took him south to Raleigh, North Carolina, where he worked as a reporter for Spectrum News 1. On his first day on air, it was baptism by fire for Ryan, sent out into Hurricane Matthew. While most of his time in NC focused on hurricanes, it’s tornados that took the center of his attention once he moved to Nashville, TN. \n\nRyan’s first week on air at WSMV 4, a tornado hit downtown Nashville. Just a few short weeks later, the COVID-19 pandemic began, and life as we knew it changed for us all. In Nashville Ryan covered the effects of the pandemic, the state legislature, a Christmas Day bombing, a flood that killed 20 people, a mass shooting at an elementary school, and left Music City having just covered more deadly tornadoes in mid-December. \n\nRyan is thrilled to call Boston home again. He looks forward to exploring new restaurants, taking trips to the beach in the summer, and being close to his family.
