Munjor sewer plant repairs extend beyond plan
Ellis County commissioners heard an update from Schwab Eaton engineer Chris Cox on the Munjor waste water plant repairs funded by a Kansas Commerce and Housing grant. One lagoon built in 1978 has leaked for years and the other two leak into it, prompting a shift to drain and repair the main cell first. The project, originally slated for 18 months, may extend into another construction season as the timing remains uncertain.
