Title: Pollution Flowing Into Mill Creek Park Today
Post by: jay on September 28, 2018, 01:25:38 PM
This morning I saw police looking at Bears Den Creek from the bridge on McCollum Road across from Number 15 Fire Station.  I just found out that some type of milky-white pollution is flowing down the creek.  What company or individual did this?

WFMJ is reporting it is sodium hydroxide from Induction Iron on Hendricks Road.  The sanitary line was connected to the storm sewer line.


EPA is investigating.
