Enid enforcement board denies Midcontinent's continuance request; hearing proceeds

The Enid Environmental Enforcement Board voted unanimously June 22 to deny Midcontinent Packaging's motion to continue the enforcement hearing related to a May 2025 wastewater plant upset. Mark Walker, counsel for Midcontinent, told the board the company's lead attorney had a scheduling conflict and that the company still awaited documents requested under the Open Records Act. "We have four notebooks of exhibits in this case," Walker said, asking for a short continuance so lead counsel could participate.
