Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is getting ready for winter operations and has a hiring event to fill approximately 65 winter seasonal positions available across the region.
The local hiring event is Tuesday, Oct. 13, from noon to 4:30 p.m. at ODOT District 1 district office, 1885 N. McCullough Street, Lima.
Plowing snow is the primary job responsibility for winter seasonal positions, but employees may also be asked to perform other operational duties.

FROM ADA ICON - When you first think of a farm, you usually think, grain or livestock.
Just east of Ada – you can see it from State Route 235 – there's a farm that's a different animal, harvesting a different crop.
The Hog Creek wind farm, officially known as the Hog Creek Wind Project, is a farm located within several farms that grow and raise grain and livestock. Hog Creek Wind Project harvests the wind and sells it as energy. Its parent company is EDP Renewables.
