Lake County leaders say their handling of the Clearlake sewage spill is on track, but restrictions for residents are still firmly in place. The spill, estimated at three million gallons, continues to impact hundreds of acres as crews work to clean up and test private wells. Officials say some initial test results look encouraging, but stress that water use can’t resume until follow-up testing is complete. Health officials are still urging affected residents to relocate temporarily and avoid using well water. Another community town hall is planned for Wednesday night in Clearlake to provide updates and answer questions.
