Beaches at East Mission Bay and Tecolote Creek have been closed after a landslide triggered an estimated 108,000-gallon sewage spill this weekend.
\nThe County Department of Environmental Health has posted signs warning the public of sewage contamination at various points along the beaches, which stretch from the Fiesta Island land bridge north to the visitor\u2019s center at Clairemont Drive.\u00a0
\nThe sewage spill was discovered at 9 a.m. Jan. 10 in Tecolote Canyon adjacent to Mt. Ashmun Drive in San Diego, where a landslide caused a main sewer line to break. The spill entered Tecolote Creek and flowed through Tecolote Golf Course before entering east Mission Bay just north of the Fiesta Island land bridge. The spill was stopped at 6 p.m. Sunday.
\nWarning signs will remain in place until water samples confirm that contamination levels decrease.
