Sewer to sea plan debated by Corona firm exchange
The future of Exchange Lemon Products Division of Sunkist may hinge on a pipeline to carry industrial waste from western Riverside County to the sea. Corona attorney Don Stark and Santa River Water Control Board manager Richard Buerman outlined the issue to Riverside County Flood Control District and Western Municipal Water District officials in a first face to face meeting. Western argued the proposed $28 million pipeline is premature and should be built later to handle saltier waste, while flood control urged immediate action to attract industry and noted current pits near Alberhill. A second session is planned in a month or two.
