The state will survey fish life in the Elk River after a massive chemical spill polluted the waterway in January.
The U.S. Geological Survey’s National Fish Health Laboratory in Leetown will aid the state Division of Natural Resources in the project next week.
The Freedom Industries spill contaminated the drinking water supply for 300,000 people for days.
