Dust inhibitor leaks into Cedar Lake from gravel lot
A lignin sulfonate dust inhibitor from the Weyerhaeuser gravel lot spilled into Cedar Lake, creating a black streak observed by a police helicopter. Officials note no fish kill yet and expect no long term problems, as lignin consumes oxygen and the pool was drained into the sanitary sewer. The spill prompted lake checks for chlordane in fish and ongoing monitoring of water quality.
