The municipal administration was still supplying power to the harbor, perhaps saving more lives and facilitating the Exorcists dealing with the Human Pus at the port.

Being in the open meant that Human Pus could swarm from all directions, despite their bulky, twisted, revolting bodies being easy targets. The numbers of Human Pus, usually far larger than the bullets carried by the Exorcists, seldom came alone.
And they wouldn't give the Exorcists time to reload bullets for several seconds.
