Sewer facility gets grant push with mineral discharge limits
Lompoc City Council unaminously passes an ordinance limiting minerals poured into the municipal sewer in a bid to secure state and federal grants for an $12 million regional project. Red Star Industrial Laundry wins a staged plan to exceed some mineral levels while other firms comply. LEDA seeks $20,000 more and halves director pay as part of budget moves. Locals warn the ordinance could deter future industry despite state compliance.
