CABIN JOHN, MARYLAND – FEBRUARY 16: Pumps and pipes divert raw sewage into the C&O Canal and around a broken section of the Potomac Interceptor, a six-foot-wide pipe that collapsed on January 19, in between the Clara Barton Parkway and the canal on February 16, 2026 in Cabin John, Maryland. More than 300 million gallons of raw sewage poured into the Potomac River after the underground pipeline collapsed on January 19. According to the Potomac Riverkeeper Network and researchers at the University of Maryland, fecal-related bacteria and disease-causing pathogens in the Potomac River reached levels more than 2,700 times the safe limit.
