Fish kill investigation at lake near Richwood
State officials continued the investigation into a second fish kill at a lake near Richwood on opening day of the trout season April 21. Ammonia was found in small amounts but its toxicity is unproven, and officials await a U S Public Health Service report. If ammonia proves causal the lake may be drained and bottom material removed or burned, a move previously blocked in 1961 by local objections.
