Pump failure threatens toxic plume in Chillicothe

CHILLICOTHE — Chillicothe residents are being warned about a pump failure in a well being run by the U.S. Paper Mill, which could cause issues with the toxic plume beneath Chillicothe. On Nov. 12, the U.S. Paper Mill alerted the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency to a pump fracture on a water well that has been containing a toxic plume of underground chemicals. The decades-old, 90-foot pump will need replaced, which will cost thousands of dollars. More about the Plume: Will the toxic underground plume in Chillicothe be affected by new owner of mill site? The migration of this plume, which was caused by a cookware manufacturing plant that closed in the 1990s, was a concern for many when the Pixelle paper mill announced it was closing down. Since then, the new owners have been pumping water into the well to keep the underground water tables away from the plume. In a news release, the U.S. Paper Mill said that migration of the plume could, over time, contaminate land and groundwater in farmland, residences, and the Scioto River. U.S. Paper Mill is working on a solution, but they are not sure how long it will take to solve this problem. "As

Former Chillicothe mill could be serving AI customers by New Year's Day

CHILLICOTHE — SOAR AI says its planned artificial intelligence campus at the former paper mill site remains on schedule, with the first GPUs expected to be operational by the end of 2026 and customer revenue projected to begin in January 2027. SOAR AI was previously known as the Volato Group, which merged with Alignment Engine in August of this year. During that merger, Alignment Engine was valued at around $500 million. “Less than two months after closing our merger, we are turning a shuttered Ohio paper mill into one of the most advanced AI compute facilities in the Midwest,” Chris Ensey, chief executive officer of SOAR AI, said in a news release. “Reusing the mill’s existing power and water infrastructure, combined with direct liquid cooling, lets us bring capacity online in months rather than years. Our power systems are commissioned, and the data hall equipment is going in now. We expect our first AMD Instinct MI355X GPUs to be serving our first customer on Dec. 31, with next-generation MI455X GPUs on the Helios platform to follow in 2027.” For months, the city stated that no permits had been filed for work at the site; however, in early November those from

Plaintiffs in short-term rental lawsuit ask judge to sanction defendant company

LOGAN — After 20 homeowners in a Green Township housing subdivision filed a lawsuit against a Florida company for buying a home there and turning it into a short-term rental, the company responded with a countersuit, alleging that the plaintiffs were interfering with its attempts to sell the property. Now the plaintiffs from Brad-Mer Acres have fired back with a motion asking a judge to dismiss the counterclaim, and to sanction the defendant company for “frivolous conduct.” In filing the countersuit, the motion alleges, defendant Palm Side Paradise LLC (PSP) is trying to “bully” the homeowners. “Because the counterclaim is not warranted under existing law and serves only to increase the cost of this litigation, Plaintiffs also request a hearing on sanctions,” the motion states. In August 2024 PSP bought a five-bedroom house in the subdivision, turned it into a short-term rental (STR) for up to 16 guests, and began marketing it on websites such as Airbnb.com and VRBO.com. In response, 10 residents of the subdivision filed a lawsuit in Hocking County Common Pleas Court, in which they argued that using the house as an STR violates Brad-Mer’s restrictive covenants. They also claimed that the rental was creating a nuisance.
