WVDEP Administrative Consent Order No. 10174 — Town of Worthington

Enforcement order issued by the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection documenting 58 permit exceedances, fecal coliform discharges nearly 12,000 percent over legal limits, and a collection drum with holes drilled in it to drain wastewater directly onto the ground. Documents a base penalty of $77,200 reduced by 70.8 percent after state regulators reviewed Worthington's finances and determined the town lacked the ability to pay.
