Prosecuting Attorney Wayne Williams agreed with Ste. Genevieve County commissioners that action needs to be taken on sewage draining into Lake Genevieve.
Sewage has flowed from a neighboring property for some time and has been documented by the county health department.
It has run beside a road that runs around the back side of the lake and has flowed over the road, into the lake.
Williams said the property owner is an elderly man from St. Louis. He said he has spoken with the man’s son, who manages the rental property, by phone. Williams said he had not been cooperative.
