Menke Pushes Federal Reimbursement for Dickerson Plant Costs
Montgomery County Councilmember John Menke urged the federal government to reimburse $11 million spent on the Dickerson sewage plant. He favored expanding Piscataway or building a smaller county plant, arguing EPA should speed approvals and consider alternatives if Prince George's County blocks Piscataway. Moore joined, proposing Montgomery take all sludge from Blue Plains as a trade-off.
