New York has managed to host the Olympics, not the Olympic Games but the Sewage Treatment Olympics.
Four teams competed to win the 19th Annual Sewage Olympics. They performed simulated drills that included; retrieving someone from a manhole, testing air quality in a makeshift sewer, fixing a broken sewer pipe and repairing a waste treatment pump.
The event was sponsored by the New York Water Environment Association and the Department of Environmental Protection.
The winners this year were the Bowery Bay Boys.
It is good to see an Olympic event that actually adds value.
