Pollution orders limited action on La Crosse river discharge
The Wisconsin Board of Health ordered disinfecting of La Crosse and West Salem sewage discharges and directed Bangor to upgrade facilities while Melvina must privatize or build public treatment. The plan avoids costly secondary treatment for now, with officials predicting it may come in five years. Local health officials say primary treatment remains effective though not ideal.
