Last month the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation
(TDEC) granted TVA a permit under the Clean Water Act that will allow
the federal corporation to discharge wastewater polluted with toxic
arsenic, mercury and selenium into the river from the plant in Roane
County. The discharge will come from from a pond that will hold liquid
waste collected from a new air pollution scrubber.
That permit is being challenged by three environmental advocacy groups
-- Earthjustice, the Environmental Integrity Project and the Sierra
Club.
"The Clean Water Act requires TDEC to eliminate toxic discharges from
the Kingston plant," says EIP Attorney Lisa Widawsky. "Instead,
incredibly, TDEC is authorizing new discharges of toxic heavy metals
-- to the tune of one million gallons a day -- into the same river
devastated by the Kingston coal ash spill."

reducing the province�s projected deficit to $4.3-billion.
In its fiscal update in August, the government forecast the 2009-10
shortfall to rise to $6.9-billion from its initial budget projection

"A fourth victim has died from injuries suffered in a natural gas
explosion that tore through a North Carolina Slim Jim plant five
months ago, a hospital spokesman said Monday.
Curtis Ray Poppe, 55, died Thursday at the North Carolina Jaycee Burn
Center in Chapel Hill, spokesman Tom Hughes said. An obituary posted
by a Hickory funeral home said Poppe's family greeted friends there
Sunday.
Four critically burned victims were among the 71 who required hospital
treatment after the June blast at the ConAgra Foods Inc. plant in
Garner, said U.S. Chemical Safety Board lead investigator Don
Holmstrom."
