Environment - "Two Gary sewage plant employees charged with fudging tests"
Teresa Auch Schultz and Jon Seidel of the Gary Post-Tribune had a very long story Dec. 9th that began:
United Water Services, the company that operated the Gary Sanitary District for 12 years, chose increasing its profits over properly killing E. coli bacteria before its water headed to the swimming beaches of Lake Michigan, according to a federal indictment.The company and two employees face 26 counts of conspiring to defraud the U.S. government and violating the Clean Water Act by allegedly lowering the amount of chlorine used to kill E. coli until just before samples were taken.
