A Pleasant Valley, Iowa nursing home is facing a state deadline to repair ongoing leaks from its wastewater treatment facility, according to an article on the Quad Cities Times website.
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR), said complaints and inspections have been ongoing at Riverview Manor for nearly five years.
The DNR became aware that sewage was leaking into a ditch along Spencer Road — just off U.S. 67 in Pleasant Valley — after numerous complaints by neighbors and neighboring land owners about the smell of raw sewage.
If the recent repairs to the wastewater system are deemed inadequate at the Nov. 1 deadline, the agency is prepared to take more serious action.
