IN WHAT WORLD? Take a look at this eerie photo of a tropical-looking lake in rural Pennsylvania and you'll understand why we need strong federal standards on coal ash. http://ow.ly/rfgXj
This is the infamous Little Blue coal ash site - one of the largest in the nation. It has poisoned nearby waters with arsenic and other toxic pollutants. When Pennsylvania announced the closure of Little Blue, residents rejoiced. Now that joy is turning to horror as they learn that the coal ash destined for Little Blue will just be dumped near another PA town, poisoning that community's water.
Why is Pennsylvania doing this? Because there are NO FEDERAL STANDARDS regulating coal ash. It's not even classified as a hazardous material!...
