Environmental Groups Sue Over Craft's Run Conditions

Posted: Updated:

A stream in western Monongalia County is at the center of a federal lawsuit.

Two environmental groups are suing two coal ash companies over the condition of Craft's Run.

Craft's Run flows near the refuse disposal sites of Coresco and Mepco.

The West Virginia Highlands Conservancy and the Sierra Club claim that orange color is the result of unlawful discharges into the stream.

The two coal ash companies have not yet filed their responses.
