City Pleads
‘No Contest’
The city has plead “no
contest” in a recent incident in
which it allegedly violated codes
of its waste water treatment per-
mit and state laws by diverting
spilled acid into McGill Creek.
Walt Ollis, director of the
city’s waste treatment program,
said the city hopes that the N.C.
Department of Natural
Resources will reduce its $2,800
assessed penalty. He said that
the decision to let the spill bypass
the treatment plant was the best
one under the circumstances.
“We could not allow the spill in-
to the treatment plant because it
would have wiped out the
biological process and took us
weeks to get back into operation
resulting in fines up to $10,000 a
day.” He said the city has ex-
plained their actions to en-
vironmental management of-
ficials.
The chemical spill at Cleve-
mont Mill last October, con-
taminated water and killed fish
in Crowder’s Creek, and Cleve-
mont Mill was also fined $1,500
for negligence in discharging a
hazardous substance, according
to the notice of assessment of
penalty sent to city and Cleve-
mont officials in March.

Speaks Out On
GOVERNMENT FUNDING
Federal or State funding may be available for many services the county cannot afford easily-
-such as countywide water and sewer systems and park facilities. If our research determines
» a present or future need for these services, we should present our case to the appropriate
agency in order to obtain our fair share of funding. Before new services are undertaken, we
must do long-range cost studies to determine the eventual maintenance cost and/or retail
price to the consumer/ taxpayer.
