Colfax Considers Plant Capacity After 351000 Fine
Colfax City Council weighed remaining wastewater plant capacity after a California Regional Water Quality Control Board fine of 351000. The city engineer reports about 15 percent capacity remains for new hookups, while residents allege the plant cannot handle current flows. A September public hearing will decide between a moratorium or allowing more hookups, risking further penalties and delays to 2006 construction.
