A power outage at the City of Manchester wastewater treatment plant located at 221 Hibbard Street, from the severe storm that hit the area Friday evening caused the 10,000 gallons of untreated wastewater to overflow into the River Raisin over a 2 hour period. The City reports that although the wastewater treatment plant is equipped with an emergency generator, a problem with the automatic transfer system prevented the generator from supplying power to the plant. An electrician was able to manually transfer the facility to generator power stopping the overflow.
