I hope that at least it's been screened for tampons, condoms, nappies and syringes...
That stuff is usually removed by the bar screens in the headworks of the plant. I wouldn't be surprised that the cause of the spill/diversion was a failure of the raking mechanism of the screens creating a backup and forcing them to divert the plants influent stream to the outfall. $hit happens
