Century Reports Large Spill At Wastewater Plant, The Second In Just Over A Week
August 5, 2025
The Town of Century on Monday, reported a 7,000 gallon spill at its wastewater treatment plant, according to a report filed with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
The town reported that a bypass pump malfunctioned, causing the spill between 5 p.m. Sunday and 7 a.m. Monday.
It’s the second large spill at the plant in just over a week. The town reported a 5,000 gallon spill occurred on July 25 after effluent pumps at the facility on Jefferson Avenue had an electrical issue that caused the treated wastewater to spill for seven and a half hours.
Both spills, according to the reports, were cleaned by applying lime.

Century you were doing so good. I haven’t seen a bad story on you in days. Now look what you’ve gone and done. You can’t be like ECUA and dump raw sewage every month and get away with it!
By any chance, did they get the gallon total of their tiny leaks that seeped in the locals well water?
More inept Century.
