The DPW, which regularly monitors pollution in the city's storm drains, discovered an unusually high fecal coliform count in a drain near the intersection of JFK and Eliot Streets several weeks ago, according to Ralph Dunphy, Cambridge's commissioner of Public Works.
Restaurant waste is supposed to be shipped to special treatment facilities, Dunphy said. But if waste must be dumped, it should be released into the sewers, rather than storm drains. Sewage is treated, Dunphy said, while storm drains flow directly into the Charles and other rivers.
Dunphy said the DPW and the Cambridge Inspectional Services Department have tried to make restaurants aware of the hazards of releasing their waste before it is treated. The discovery that restaurants were releasing waste into the storm drains was unexpected, he said.
