Poopy beaches? Oregon's got them, according to new study | KATU.com - Portland, Oregon | Outdoors Featured: "Nye Beach, for example, had multiple sources of contamination, said Newport’s Public Works Director Lee Ritzman. He said the city has found nine homes during the past year where the sewer line was mistakenly connected to storm drains.
When it rains extremely hard or when there is an overflow in a city sewer line, the water in Newport runs through creeks and ends up in a storm drain that flows directly onto the beach and into the ocean."
