(haipo) Sewage has been flowing for several days in Wadi Shikh in Haifa. Travelers have reported to Carmel Water but the problem has not yet been addressed. Carmel Water reports that these are sewage hazards caused by new construction, which is being carried out on Lotus Street. The full response is later in the article.
Sewage has been flowing in Nahal Shikh since last Thursday 8/6/23. Travelers who were there reported the hazard to the Carmel Water and say that it is not possible to go through the hiking route marked due to the hazard.
Anat Peled Rosen, instructor of the nature classes, said in a face-to-face conversation:
On Thursday we took a walk and saw the sewage flowing, we reported it, but this morning, when I came to walk with a group of children, I encountered the problem again and saw that it had not been taken care of, so even today hikers cannot cross the marked route in the area. The smell is unbearable, the smell of stench and it's just a shame, it's a shame that nature is not preserved and the problem is not dealt with in time so that the travelers can enjoy the beautiful nature that we have in the city."
From which Carmel was given Cheers here in response:
The case is being investigated. These are sewage hazards caused by new construction, which is being carried out on Lotus Street. As part of the construction, damage was done to the public sewage systems. In view of the fact that the developer did not repair the damage as required, the corporation took care of the sewage hazards immediately, charging the developer for the damages. At the same time, a complaint was forwarded to the construction supervision for further processing with the developer.
Sewage needs to be treated immediately.
