(Preble County, OH)--An incredible number of old tires have been pulled from a creek that feeds the Rush Run area of Preble County.  The EPA recently notified Preble County that the cleanup was taking place on private property and that a grant was helping to cover the cost.  How many tires were pulled from the creek?  More than 10,000 of them.  The tires were piled into a large mound in a field and then removed.  There’s no word on whether or not the property owner will face any penalities.
