Corporate constitutional rights and a city's health

In a follow-up to a previous posting, The City of Colombus found good news in a State EPA memo that may require Penn Gaming to use the City's sewage system. The EPA memo was in response to a memo by Penn Gaming that  said it was within Penn Gaming's constructional rights to dig a well to inject the raw sewage from their casino. Penn Gaming also wanted to dig a well on the same site to provide drinking water for the same patrons.
