WAMPUM Borough officials have some concerns about what a neighboring community is flushing.
Wampum Council members Charles Kelly Sr. and Charles Kelly Jr. expressed concern earlier this week about what is coming into the Wampum Sewage Disposal Plant from Wayne Township.
The Kellys said the smells are horrific and chemicals coming into the plant from the sewage are slowly blackening and destroying the equipment.
Kelly Jr. said in recent tests of the sewage, algae and chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia were detected. It s never stopped, he said. It s (the sewage) literally black whenever we come into the plant.
