Ohio state water board tentatively endorses a major plan to impound the Grand river at Geauga County and divert water into the Cuyahoga and Mahoning rivers. The proposal aims to boost Akron and Mahoning Valley industries, with a dam headwaters project potentially delivering 50 million gallons daily to the Cuyahoga and a large, undetermined supply to Mahoning. The effort follows a study with U S Geological Survey to map flow as part of statewide water resources planning.
