Dec 24, 2008: Santa Brings the Coal (ash)
via NYT:
In short, it seems that the ash produced by Kingston Fossil Plant was stored in a pond. That is, until about two days ago, when a dam or levee burst. Beyond the simple kinetic problem of a sludge-flood, apparently there is some question as to exactly how toxic the material is. Quote:
On the flip side, Tennessee Valley Authority did provide a really nice fly-by video of the spill area. Their website probably has the highest resolution .wmv, but you can also find it on the NY Times website and, most-streamable, this copy on youtube. |
