IRON MOUNTAIN -- The city of Iron Mountain is facing criminal charges.

The Department of Environmental Quality has cited the city for allegedly dumping sewage illegally back in May.

DEQ officials previously told TV6 that the city contracted workers who dumped more than a thousand gallons of untreated sewage at two locations in Iron Mountain.

Now, neither the DEQ nor the city is talking about the charges filed or the possible consequences, until the investigation is complete.

An arraignment is scheduled for November 21.
