EPA moves to sue Elyria over Black River pollution
The US EPA has referred Elyria to the Justice Department for possible civil action over phosphorus discharges from the Wastewater Pollution Control plant. If pursued, the action could impose a $10,000 fine. City and Ohio EPA efforts to delay permanent standards clash with federal aims set for 1992. Mayor Keys says compromise stalled and funding delays push the issue toward court.
