Lompoc Utility Services Co officials plan a Wednesday meeting with Lompoc city officials to discuss joining the regional sewer plant on Central Avenue. James Smitherman says joining the regional program is the only logical path for serving Mission Hills. The move follows a Water Quality Control Board ruling and a pending misdemeanor conviction for failure to provide technical data.
