As noxious fumes sicken residents, anger grows about Hyperion plant sewage discharge

On a jog in her El Segundo neighborhood, Corrie Zupo's head hurt and her eyes watered.

She blamed the symptoms on noxious fumes from the nearby Hyperion Water Reclamation Plant, which is undergoing at least a month of repairs after discharging 17 million gallons of raw sewage into the ocean on July 11.

Other residents have complained of rashes, nausea and burning eyes.

On Thursday, the Los Angeles Sanitation and Environment Department, which runs the plant, announced that it would reimburse El Segundo residents for air conditioners if they stay in their homes, or hotel vouchers if they would rather leave.

Toxic, nasty, full of shit, spews a seemingly endless stream of raw sewage, and makes people want to vomit.

He likes putting his name on buildings, right?
