Deer Island Sewage Treatment Plant

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2456089/fan_mail/new] Deep beneath the waters of Deer Island, one of the largest wastewater treatment plants in the United States was under construction—an ambitious project meant to clean up Boston Harbor and protect the environment. But behind the engineering feat lies a much darker story. In this episode, we explore the construction of the Deer Island Sewage Treatment Plant and the dangerous conditions workers faced while building massive underwater tunnels. We focus on the tragic deaths of two divers who lost their lives deep below the surface, operating in a pressurized, high-risk environment where one mistake could be fatal.
