Potomac River 'Sewage Spill of the Century'

Join Potomac Riverkeeper Network (PRKN) on Feb. 11, 2026 at noon for an in-depth discussion on the catastrophic sewage spill that occurred on January 19 in Montgomery County, Maryland. Potomac Riverkeeper Dean Naujoks will share the latest updates, walk through PRKN’s rapid response efforts, and explain what this spill means for the health of the Potomac River and downstream communities.

More than two weeks into this crisis, the work is far from over. PRKN has been on the ground—collecting critical water quality data, monitoring contamination levels, and providing transparent, science-based reporting to keep the public informed. The next phase is clear: demanding accountability and meaningful remediation to protect rivers that millions depend on for recreation, wildlife habitat, and drinking water.
