Preserve French Creek takes wastewater battle to federal court, alleging Clean Water Act violations and civil rights concerns
A group of Custer County residents is taking the city of Custer to court in an effort to block the city’s project to expand its wastewater services.
Preserve French Creek is back in court for a second time – this time federal court – after losing a lawsuit in the state court system. The lawsuit also names the South Dakota Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources, as well as various Custer and state officials.
