Court Upholds Sewage Rights In West Virginia
The West Virginia Supreme Court ruled municipalities may extend sewage disposal to adjoining state territory under a 1933 act. The decision upheld Bluefield’s authority to build a 443,634 plant near contiguous Bluefield Virginia and rejected Bernard’s bid to block it and to disallow sanitary board incorporation. State PWA Director O Neale said the suit was friendly. The Fayette circuit ruling in favor of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen was also upheld.
