Two More TVA Spills
Submitted by Hummingbird13 on January 9, 2009 - 16:11Hummingbird asks some very good questions ... any interest in getting an investigative team together to help track these spills? - promoted by roxy
Wow! A Siegel on Daily Kos got this before I did, so I'll just post his link, but we have two more TVA spills in the southeast, one on the Ocoee River in East Tennessee, which has caused a major fish kill, and the other at the Widows Creek TVA plant in Alabama.
Why is all this happening at once? Is the infrastructure of the pools just past it's shelf life?

TXSharon recently did a piece related to a rather interesting hose she discovered, running from a drilling sludge collection pond and terminating in a creek on conservation land in DFW:
