When the U.S. government hires subcontractors and the railroad or a truck line to transport nuclear waste, and there is a derailment or truck accident do we automatically jump on the government?
In this case the contractor accidentally ruptured a containment wall. Didn't matter if the EPA was in charge. Sheet happens.
Seems to me some folks just want to jump on the EPA or it makes a more attention grabbing headline.
No doubt that is toxic material if they say it is, but it sure looks like iron ferrate precipitate to me that will settle out and eventually be consumed by bacteria.
I don't know but I would bet money under the secrecy of this administration we are not going to find out the real truth any time soon. The report I heard said the contractor was doing exactly as directed and the EPA doesn't seem to be in denial of responsibility .
