Lynwood : Well Cleanup Study OKd

The City Council has approved hiring a Pasadena engineering firm to study how to remove excessive iron and manganese from a municipal water well.
James M. Montgomery Engineers Inc. has been awarded a $20,000 contract to figure out how to treat the well, which the city built last year but never operated because the chemicals exceeded state health limits.
