Officials investigating a “sewer odor” today, Oct. 29, near the Shaker Run development in Turtlecreek Twp., say the odor is being caused by the releasing of water from the Armco Park dam.

Turtlecreek Twp. fire crews and county sewer inspectors were called to the area off Green Tree Road around 3:30 p.m. Crews said the smell is not hazardous and does not represent any danger to the community.

All plumbing vent stacks produce odors unless they fitted with a filter. All major odor problems have associated fines or other penalties. When you are experiencing sewer or septic smells inside a home or business not near a plumbing fixture these odors are most likely coming from your sewer vent stacks on your roof. All plumbing vent stacks produce odors including that "rotten egg" smell caused by hydrogen sulfide gas unless they are fitted with a filter.
