COLUMBUS JUNCTION After more than five years of discussion and study, a June 9 public hearing to consider plans and specifications for a planned sewage lagoon upgrade was set Tuesday by the Columbus Junction City Council during its regular meeting.
According to past discussions, the city learned in 2016 that its current system was not meeting some revised discharge standards and would need modifications.
After investigating a number of possibilities, including the use of equipment that would utilize algae-based technology, city officials were told the city could simply extend a discharge pipe to the Iowa River, where the volume of water allowed the new standard to be met.
