Water supply dispute threatens 60 power plant operations
A court suit by the Waterloo Cedar Falls & Northern railway seeks to bar landowners along Black Hawk creek from rebuilding a dam that diverts water to the powerhouse area. The case cites repeated dam rebuilding, potential shutdowns of 100 miles of interurban and 40 miles of urban lines serving 109000 people. The railroad commission process may take until October, risking service if water cuts continue.
