It is estimated the spill was 100,000 gallons.
Officials said no adverse impacts are expected, as the spillover was heavily diluted by stormwater.
SAWS is working to replace and upgrade capacity of sewer lines in areas prone to overflows throughout the city, with a more than $170 million capital improvements budget.
