Opponents Plan Fresh Push Against Mahoning River Dam
The Upper Ohio Valley Association leads opposition to the West Branch Mahoning River dam in Portage County Ohio. Witnesses travel to Washington to urge Congress to block the project, which aims to flood control and supply more water for regional industries at an estimated cost of 12.585 million dollars. The bill ties West Branch to other flood control measures.
