Indiana says Kentucky grabbing at Hoosierland
Indiana Attorney General Linley Pearson says Kentucky aims to annex land by claiming ownership of the Ohio River. A federal hearing in Cincinnati October 20 will hear three weeks of arguments as the 1980 Supreme Court ruling leaves the river boundary unsettled. Pearson notes rights to permits and land use hinge on the dispute while public hearings in five towns gather input from landowners along 354 miles of boundary.
