A legal issue has delayed the cleanup of the old Coke and Carbon plant at 13^th and Hulman.

The Terre Haute Board of Sanitary Commissioners voted to table hiring a contractor because the Board wants to make sure a legal noticed was properly published in the Terre Haute Tribune Star according to Indiana law.

The Board must move quickly, as an Indiana state grant will pay for the project, but paperwork is due on the 15th. So the Board could either have an emergency meeting in the next two days or they could ask the state to give them an extension.
