The Missouri Department of Natural Resources is investigating a sewage bypass that resulted in the release of more than 10,000 gallons of untreated waste into an unnamed tributary of Fall Creek in southern Branson Wednesday.

DNR learned about the problem today, according to a news release from the agency.

The sewage overflow resulted from an electrical outage at a lift station near Fall Creek Road.

The bypass lasted 15 minutes, releasing an estimated 10,000 to 12,000 gallons of untreated wastewater, according to DNR.

The wastewater made its way to Fall Creek. City staff has drawn samples from the creek for testing and will draw samples again on Monday.

Fall Creek drains into Lake Taneycomo. It is not known if any of the wastewater made it to the lake. full article

(Branson, MO) -- This week's rains caused flooding in many parts of the Ozarks. In Branson, rain forced the closure one of a city park.

Water from nearby Roark Creek washed through Stockstill Park, carrying away mulch from the playground, damaging ball field fences and leaving behind rock, gravel, limbs and other debris throughout the whole park.

The park will remain closed indefinitely.  Stockstill Park is frequently damaged by flooding.

Branson, Mo., receives 8 million visitors a year, who are drawn to its more than 50 theaters and 100 live shows. But getting there isn't easy. Located in southern Missouri, Branson's closest airport has been Springfield, Mo.—about an hour away.

Thankfully, on Monday, a $155-million airport opens in Branson. (Fun fact: It's the first commercial airport in the country to be financed, built, and operated privately.)

To celebrate, Branson is hosting its first-ever air show, with performances by the elite U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, a collection of F-16s whose pilots execute 30 high-flying maneuvers in one show—including a six-plane formation that's so close you'll hold your breath. Read full story...
