The Hocking Conservancy District will be mothballed this week and kept idle until funds allow a return to full time flood control efforts. A $150,000 loan could sustain operations until bonds can be issued to repay creditors and finance the agency. Executive secretary Don Johnson notes that despite large grants, the money is not available to loan.
