Brookhaven (11719), on Suffolk's South Shore, borders or sits near Shirley, Bellport and Mastic Beach. The National Weather Service recorded record flooding along the Great South Bay during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, with surge of roughly 6 to 7 feet on the southwest Suffolk shore.
Suffolk County has roughly 380,000 cesspools and septic systems, according to the county health department, which makes sewage backups a recurring cause of water damage. Bay flooding is salt water carrying silt and debris, so cleanup goes well beyond the drying used for a clean-water pipe break. Low-lying streets near the water can flood from the bay and from the sky at the same time.
In practice, crews in Brookhaven focus on stopping the source, removing standing water quickly, and drying structure and contents to acceptable moisture levels.
