I love it how people say coal power is perfectly safe and then this kind of thing happens
ever hear of flash fill? it uses coal ash from power plants as an ingrediant. It is used when a util company has to fill in a spot of road after repairing something. fast to harden, cheap, and just as solid as concrete. There was a law proposed here in ohio that would label coal ash as toxic and would make it impossible to use flash fill... Duke Power lobbied against it and the law failed.
