Rockdale Pipeline files claim against New Ellenton over sewer project
Rockdale Pipeline Inc filed suit in Aiken County Court of Common Pleas seeking more than 100000 from New Ellenton for a failed 5 million sewer project. The town lacks bond funds to cover such debts amid ongoing litigation with NationsBank over a 51 million bond issue. Authorities in Lake Wylie say a body found may be Charlotte man Lowery Farr who disappeared during a weekend boat trip.
