I have a question!! I live near a "fly ash" resivor that is very large. Would someone PLEASE tell me why the watter is this color...Should I be concerned? I have a million reasons why the water is this color, but I am looking for the facts....LOCATION is where Pa. Oh. and Wv. all meat..the lake is called little blue. google it, let me know what you think...............
I lived near this location all my life.... Now for the color of the water,you might want to be on a look out for a 60 Minutes special on this very disaster,I dont know when it will air just yet. But I did just see a TV show called Crumbling America the other night and they had this fly ash spill on that show. They did mentioned that there are 100s of these fly ash ponds everywhere.They mentioned acid and other poisons from this spill...Watch out, America is Crumbling. .
Actually,This wall has been there as long as I can remember. I just so happened used to live there on that road. I used to have bad thoughts about that wall bursting long ago. Theres another wall that I used to think about as well...It runs run through downtown Kingston,matter of fact the High School is built next to it. I used to imagine that busting open when I was in school.. Strange 30 years later one of them did break.These are old levees...sorta like New Orleans

That water is radioactive and probably highly contaminated.
Everyone knows now that Another of TVA's ponds burst early 2009, right?
Yes, there are two of these messes in the south now. Good luck finding drinking water,
ever again.
And that ain't no 'pond'
