PUNXSUTAWNEY — The sewer line separation work that is partially paid for through the H2O Grant that Punxsutawney Borough was approved for, is moving along quickly thanks to the good weather.
"Mealy Construction began work this past Sunday and is working from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. every night on the storm sewer project that is taking place around the railroad underpass and the Punxy Plaza on West Mahoning Street," Brian Sekula, Punxsutawney Borough engineer from the Eads Group, said at Monday's Punxsutawney Borough Council meeting.

Clifford Schall, project supervisor, said not only are the shingles being replaced, but so are some of the facing boards. The work is being performed due to leaks in both of the steeple roofs. Shown are Bobby Lawson (window) and Keith Tanner on the rope replacing shingles. (Photo by Larry McGuire of The Punxsutawney Spirit)
