Grease clogged a sewer main Sunday afternoon on New Haven Drive in DeKalb County, dumping an undetermined amount of raw sewage into the North Fork of Peachtree Creek.
Crews were able to stop the overflow by turning off the water to nearby apartments.
The county plans a $1.35 billion overhaul of its water/sewer system to meet a federal consent decree to prevent such spills in the future.
