CG&E defends Beckford ash disposal stance in Pierce Township
The letter criticizes CG&E for a supposed policy of turning Beckford Station fly ash into a federally defined toxic waste dump in Pierce Township. CG&E says coal ash is not classified as toxic or hazardous by federal or Ohio authorities, notes ongoing study by GAI Associates, and states it will consider disposal options after the report. The company has engaged with public meetings and the Pierce Township citizens group and will continue to seek input while evaluating options.

Williamsburg First County Seat and Local Civil War Sites
Williamsburg in Clermont County, the oldest village and former county seat, features landmarks tied to its early history. James Kain’s land at SR 133 and SR 276, Morgan’s Confederate cavalry camp at the Big Field July 13, 1863, and Morgan’s night at Kain Tavern are noted. Lytle’s Harmony Hill, the oldest standing structures, the 1796 dairy house, and the free stone step from John Lytle’s home with Morgan’s carved inscription mark the area’s heritage. The county square once hosted a courthouse, and courts, musters, and Militia activity occurred along Front and Gay Streets including notable homes and the East Fork ford. A small cyclone struck Milford about 87 years ago, damaging the east square of Gatch Street.
