Anne Arundel County health officials will be testing the water again today around the headwaters of Rock Creek in Pasadena, where more than 50,000 gallons of sewage and waste water spilled into the creek Friday.
Health officials warned residents in the affected area, from Tower Bridge Road to south of the Fort Smallwood Bridge, to avoid contact with the creek, said Pam Jordan, county information officer.
Anyone coming in contact with water from Rock Creek should immediately wash their hands and clothing. Jordan said children should be told to stay out of the water.
