Pollution claim fades as river tests show no pollution
Ohio Wildlife Division officials withdrew their pollution charge against Middletown after tests on the Miami River showed dissolved oxygen levels above the threshold for fish survival downstream of a sewer tied to Middletown and Armco Steel Corp. The report notes no dead fish and cites cooperation with Armco in addressing water pollution. City Commission agenda includes trash burning ordinance and bond issues, plus street work and utility bids. Proclamations for Clean Up Week and Middletown May Festival Day are planned.
