JEER-Gloucester City News.. October 8, 2009….in the Jeer Section I read the $\"Images-12\"$ following…quote: It was reported in the Philadelphia Inquirer that Camden City and Gloucester City are the only two communities in Camden County that still mix storm water and sewage in one large pipe. If the system overflows when it rains, it floods sewage everywhere. 19 months later nothing has changed. Every time we have a heavy rain…the street begins to flood as Gloucester City Water Department has told me that they close the flood gates in order to let the water into the river at a slow pace. Well, the water that floods the street and fills that large pipe with storm water and sewage…backs up into the sewer line and out on to my basement floor. I have repeatedly had to clean up this raw sewage from my cellar floor with bleach water! Will Gloucester City ever be required to do what the other 35 communities in Camden County have done and fix this quandary? I am so sick of cleaning up other residents’ raw sewage….signed Anonymous
