The river Seine isn't as clean as officials would've hoped ahead of the Paris Olympics.Â
Many have expressed concerns over the state of the waterway which will also play a major role in the opening ceremony, where teams will float downstream in barges.Â

She says nearly $2.4 billion has been spent trying to clean up the river in the past decade.Â
