The Cackling Kamala Thread

Hey Jeff we have something similar down here, back in the 60's and 70's we had a large papermill that would take dioxin and barge it to these large tanks that were in San Jacinto River, dump into those tanks. Well those tanks started leaking years ago, still under water. It is now a multi billion dollar superfund site. They have monitors all around, buoys are put up to keep boats from coming close to them. However when we get hurricanes barges into getting blown into that area.

The papermill closed 30 years ago, and the problem still exists today and no one wants to do anything about it except keep kicking the can down the road. Every time we cross the San Jac River Bridge we look over at that area!
