Middleport seeks permit extension for Ohio River sewage dump
Mayor Kenneth McElhinney and village officials travel to Columbus with attorney Bernard Fultz to petition the Ohio Water Pollution Control Board for an indefinite permit extension to dump raw sewage into the Ohio River. A chemical analysis found no significant river contamination downstream of Middleport sewers. A sewage treatment plant is planned at an estimated cost of 472000, funded partly by a bond issue defeated in November.
