Butner, NC – The South Granville Water & Sewer Authority received a report regarding a sewer backup at the 300 block of Watson Street in Creedmoor, NC. The service request, received on February 20, 2025, reported an issue that had been ongoing for approximately three weeks.
Upon investigation, SGWASA's utility crew conducted a jetting of the cleanout and the main sewer line. During this process, the crew discovered a blockage caused by a collection of Mardi Gras beads and other debris. These materials appeared to have obstructed the flow in the sewer main, resulting in the backup.
A SGWASA Superintendent filed a report with the Creedmoor Police Department to assist with further investigation.
