The EPA and the Curse of Coal Ash

American News Project
and
Davin Hutchins
22 January 2009

In March of 2000 during the last days of the Clinton administration, the EPA decided coal ash was a hazardous waste and then two months later, changed its mind. If the EPA had stuck to its guns, the Kingston Coal Ash disaster in Tennessee might have been averted. The push now is to have coal ash federally regulated.

Will the EPA make the same mistake twice?
