An Ohio man is the subject of a lawsuit leveled in July by a Texas company that operates gas wells within the state. The company, Buckeye Brine, says that the billboards that the man has put up are defamatory. The billboards make references to the Biblical book of Revelations and include statements about water pollution that will kill 'many man" as a result. The billboards say that the injection well process is poisoning the water. Ohio is one of the few states that permits drilling operators to dispose of waste water by injecting it back into the wells that are produced by the drilling process.

One of the best ways to make an important decision is to prioritize it among all the various decisions that need to be made. Next, it is worthwhile to analyze what has been done about it and then take care of those decisions in the order that they have been prioritized.

One simple, yet effective, way that Ohio businesses can avoid contract disputes is to have all contracts and agreements notarized. This may seem like an unnecessary and time-consuming step, especially if a notary public is difficult to locate. However, a business owner who has had the legitimacy of a contract challenged because the signatures were challenged will most likely consider such a step to be mandatory in the future.
When to update a business plan
Business owners in Ohio may periodically need to review their business plans and ensure that they are current. A business plan is not simply a document that is written to secure funding for a business in its early days. It can serve a business owner throughout the life of the business by providing a foundation that can be reviewed and updated according to the business's changing needs. Business planning should be an ongoing task.
