Sewage Disposal Plan Urged by City Officials
City officials warn a sewage disposal plant will soon be necessary as protests mount against river pollution. The current system dumps sewage into the Cedar River, while an emergency sewer at Chautauqua Park funnels overflow to the main line if the pumping station fails. Homes near the park will be required to join the city sewer system once work finishes.
