Oil Runoff Into Cedar River From Dual Sources
A laboratory report identifies two oil types in the Cedar River runoff from two sources between Fourth Street and A Avenue NW and a storm sewer outlet. City and Linn County investigators note no major environmental damage yet, but risk remains until sources are identified. Local officials say storm sewers are cleaned after each sighting and a catch at the sewer mouth has absorbed oil since January. One oil type is machine oil and the other likely gasoline or diesel.
