Glad to see Shane
and Kristi Newby back in Webb City

Family and countless friends of Shane and Kristi Newby are happy that the couple have returned from a three-month stay at Denver's Craig Hospital.

When they left in November, they had to fly in an air ambulance. Shane's spinal chord was severed when he fell from his house while hanging Christmas lights. At Craig, he was treated and taught how to cope with his condition.

Thanks for visiting webbcity.net

At least the Wise Buyer Ads are up to date.

 

EPA cleanup, filling Sucker Flat in
full swing

As evident from Highways 171 and 249, excavators and haul trucks are working at full speed in removing mine waste from the Oronogo Duenweg Mining Belt EPA Superfund.

That waste, 12 feet deep in some places, is being dumped into Sucker Flat, a water-filled mine pit in King Jack Park.

Prior to this, a sturdy haul road had to be built through King Jack Park up to the south edge of the pit (top photo). At the same time, some mine waste within the park was used to fill a shallow lake.

It's estimated it may take two years to fill Sucker Flat. Once filled, it will be capped with top soil and be enhanced for park use.
