SAN DIEGO (AP) - The massive power outage in San Diego County also cut power to sewage pumps, causing more than 2 million gallons of sewage to spill and shuttering prime beaches.
120,000 gallons "spilled" in the Sweetwater River, which flows into the southern part of San Diego Bay..

The power outage began with a major transmission outage in western Arizona that caused a loss of power to southern California. Shortly afterward, the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station went off line. As a result, SDG&E did not have adequate resources on its system to keep power on across its service territory.
