On April 8, 2025, a discharge of approximately 106,000 gallons of reclaimed water occurred at the 1800 block of Serpentine Dr. S. The release was caused by a contractor accidentally breaking a line. Of the total discharged water, about 102,000 gallons flowed into Tampa Bay, 2,000 gallons entered a nearby storm drain, 1,000 gallons were contained on-site, and the remaining 500 gallons were vacuumed. Repairs are planned, and signage has been posted to inform the public of the incident.
