FORT LAUDERDALE — A contractor dumped 3,000 gallons of sewage into the city’s stormwater system instead of the sewage system on Thursday night, sending raw sewage into the lagoon at George English Park. Both boat ramps are now closed and a no-swim advisory has been issued. Fort Lauderdale has already brought in an emergency contractor to clean up the waterway and adjacent land, said Alan Dodd, .
The city filed a 16-page lawsuit against four entities: Hanna Engineering, Landsdown Earth and Pipe, Inc., and Developers Surety and Indemnity Company.
