Department of Health Issues Emergency Closure for Cox Creek and Furnace Creek

August 13, 2014 – The Anne Arundel County Department of Health has ordered an emergency closing and posted signs warning against swimming and other direct water contact for Cox Creek and Furnace Creek in Glen Burnie, Maryland. The closings are due to sanitary sewer overflows that began Tuesday, August 12 from the Cox Creek Water Reclamation Facility (approximately 57,600 gallons) and the Cinder Cove Sewer Pumping Station (approximately 43,000 gallons).

The waterway closures will remain in effect until August 20.

The Department of Health advises people coming in contact with the affected water to wash well with soap and warm water immediately. Clothing should also be washed.
