Chance for Quick Start Seen on Sugar Run Sewer Project
Mercy prospects for starting a sewer project on Sugar Run were unclear despite a report by Don Whitfield WPA supervisor to wage officials. He believes work can begin by year end on a sewer for in water use only. The system currently carries storm water and sewage, needing separation. State board approval for a combined project could help, but feasibility varies by funding. Village officials plan further discussions with WPA district officials and a health board to obtain a recommendation on the best method to handle the sewer issue.
