BUFFALO, N.Y. — A judge Thursday tossed out a lawsuit that threatened continued development of a massive industrial park in rural Genesee County.
Orleans County had sued in an effort to halt construction of a sewage transmission line through its jurisdiction that would route wastewater from the STAMP industrial park into Oak Orchard Creek. Orleans officials contend the wastewater would pollute the creek and potentially damage the county’s fishing industry.
State Supreme Court Judge Frank Caruso dismissed the case on procedural grounds. He ruled Orleans County waited too long to file suit. You can read the full story on Investigative Post's website.
