~ The City of Long Beach Health Department has ordered the temporary closure of all swimming areas West of the Belmont Pier due to a sewage spill. This comes after a report was received from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health and Los Angeles County Sanitation District that approximately 18,000 gallons of sewage was discharged into the Los Angeles River on March 15, 2023.
The spill was caused by sewer capacity and heavy rainfall in the City of Paramount. To protect public safety, the City of Long Beach Health Department's recreational water quality health inspection team is monitoring water quality along the coast until results comply with State water quality standards.
