Crews continue clean-up efforts along the C&O Canal following the Potomac Interceptor overflow. Sludge and debris are being removed between locks 10 and 13, and access is being built between locks 13 and 14 so heavy equipment can remove contaminated soil without using the towpath. DC Water is working with the National Park Service on a specialized plan to clean and restore the historic locks. Over the next week, crews will begin mobilizing for long-term rehabilitation covering more than 2,700 feet of pipe, including excavating a third site to access the pipe. đź”— https://www.dcwater.com/about-dc-water/media/news/soil-sampling-under-evaluation-initial-clean-areas-impacted-potomac
