Frederick approves business expansions and new centers
Frederick city planners cleared several projects Monday night. Me Giorex Company UV received a site plan approval for expanded plant facilities on Gas House Pike, doubling capacity and consolidating operations. Clorox gained a flood plain variance for part of its plant, with restrictions.

Government advisers warned for years that instrumentation at nuclear plants could fail to monitor certain accidents, a shortfall not addressed until after the Three Mile Island crisis.
