Meeting slated to discuss cleanup at Ten-Mile Drain site in Michigan

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is holding a public meeting Thursday in St. Clair Shores, Michigan, to discuss cleanup efforts and future plans for the Ten-Mile Drain site.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been detected in a storm sewer drain system at the site and EPA has been addressing the issue. For more than a decade, EPA has completed widespread cleanup and site investigations and has partnered with residents when concerns are expressed.

The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 17, in the St. Clair Shores City Council Chambers, 27600 Jefferson Circle Drive. An open house from 3 – 5 p.m. in the Geer Conference Room will precede the meeting.

Members of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and Michigan Department of Health and Human Services will attend the meeting to help address questions.
