EPA May Extend Deadline for Heights Sewer Project
EPA lawyers say Elyria could receive an extension beyond the January 15 design deadline for Eastern Heights sewer improvements. Fines up to $10,000 daily are possible if the city misses schedules while the EPA weighs a final agreement under the 1983 consent decree. The dispute centers on a $50 million waste water plant expansion and $15 million in city-wide sewer upgrades to curb overflows.
