That *****.

Town Branch (aka Middle Fork of the Elkhorn as it was called a long time ago) runs from downtown Lexington out past a landfill and that sewer treatment plant...then dumps into South Elkhorn just over into Woodford County near Frankfort Pike. The North Fork of Elkhorn, thankfully, shouldn't be affected, but South Elkhorn from that point where Town Branch enters to the Forks of Elkhorn, then on to the river on the Main Stem is all "downstream" from the 3 million gallons of sewage influx. It'll take a little time for that water to push all the way down the South Fork, then the Main Stem, then to the river. The flow isn't all that fast right now, but it's better than it was a few days ago. I don't know if that's good or bad...I don't know if the bad water will get diluted more and more as it moves down through the system and not hurt things too badly...I just don't know enough about how it works.

*****.

We'll hopefully hear more from KDFWR about this in the coming days.
