Freedom Industries Inc., the company behind a chemical spill that contaminated the water supply of 300,000 West Virginians last year, will soon ask creditors to vote on its debt-payment plan after resolving an issue related to the cleanup, Dow Jones Daily Bankruptcy Review reported today. Bankruptcy Judge Ronald Pearson on Wednesday signed off on the company's disclosure statement that will be sent to creditors along with other voting materials. All voting materials, including ballots, require bankruptcy court approval before being sent to creditors. Votes are due Sept. 28, with a final hearing on the plan scheduled to follow Oct. 2.
