A citizens' group formed in the Clear Fork Valley is ready to do battle with a corporate giant.

Representatives of Ohioans Protecting Our Resources and Rights, called on the Richland County Commissioners to outline their disagreement with the Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation.

Butler resident Van Ross Wade says the company has notified residents it wants to enlarge its wheeler gas storage field from the eastern edge of Butler and Millersburg.

No compensation has been offered, citing eminent domain. The grassroots group meets from 7 to 9 p.m. each Thursday at the Clear Fork Adult Center in Butler. The public is welcome to become involved.

-The individuals involved in this newscast apparently are not being fully informed by Columbia Gas as to their rights. Has the utility authority approved this project?  Did the owners give up their storage rights?  Is a fair attempt to resolve premised upon the principals of just compensation being made?  Valuable interests are being taken.  The owners should be fairly compensated as part of the process
