Mayor Scott didn't block the facility from treating the water, just from releasing the treated water into the city's sewer and wastewater system. I assume that made Clean Harbor's treatment plan economically unfeasible.

As long as Clean Harbor can meet the EPA guidelines, aren't they typically discharging to city's wastewater system?
Would we have even heard about this if it wasn't from East Palestine? Or does Mayor Scott step in every time they're treating Vinyl Chloride/PFOA/PFOS? It feels more like grandstanding than anything. Particularly without any follow up guidance to dictate what we'll allow them to discharge to DPW in the future.
