So is it Osseo or Osceola?

It's Osseo, which is southeast of Eau Claire. PP, wake up!

Shouldn't the title read Manager of Osseo plant ......not Osceola? They are two different towns.

So What

Judged:

This prosecution is ridiculuous. The harm from a little dumping like this is virtually nothing.

Just some power hungry PCA bureaucrat getting a thrill. I hope the guy is acquited.

Osseo or Osceola?

Osceola & Osseo, WI are 2 different places. I think you need to fix your headline?

Anyone else want to inform us the PP made an error in their headline? I feel this should be a felony. Rivers and streams are not for dumping waste.

The story appears to have originated from the Eau Claire Leader-Telegram, not the PP. To put the blame on the PP is wrong.

Walter, The Leader-Telegram wrote the story, but PP would be responsible for their own headline. The LT's headline is "Business' manager accused of polluting river".

The Pioneer Press has to be an English teachers dream (or nightmare). "For extra credit, bring in the morning paper with as many gramatical errors circled as you can find. 32? Did anyone read more than one section?"

Were profits the motive, or just laziness? Remember, we ALL have to live on this planet, and it's not getting any bigger.

So your kids and grand kids don't come out looking
like Frankenstein or with two heads and no heart!

Just don't go suing the city when you find out
your drinking water or bottle water is found to
be toxic.

Someone who knows better

Minneapolis, MN

knows that this fool probably had it coming with employees tripping over each other to get to phone and turn him in.Bet their still laughing and will want to pull whistle blower lawsuit on the fellow or something to boot. If what he did was so harmless, than maybe he wouldn't mind drinking what he dumped down drain.
