A standard must be set. At a fly ash landfill in Sheboygan Wi there is arsenic in the monitoring wells, yet when the private wells were tested a few hundred feet away , arsenic was detected and the homeowners were told arsenic was naturally occuring along Lake Michigan. That may be true, and I may have believed it if it weren’t for the fact, it is an unlined landfill sitting in a wetland. No one told the homeowners that there are three types of arsenic, organic, inorganic and tri valent. By saying that arsenic is naturally occuring, the DNR is giving the public a false sense of security, the test they performed only detected arsenic, not the form of arsenic. The truth may hurt the coal industry, but the public has the right to know the type of toxins in their water. An apple seed has natural arsenic, what is in flyash? It’s time for disclosure to the people affected.

The Good Force be with you!

Very nice, Kacee! Thanks for the invite!

Arsenic is poisonous. We must handle it carefully. Its waste must be separated and be put in a sealed container to avoid contamination.

I am thinking of how its chemical composition be broken down and put into good use to protect our environment.

Live forever and prosper!

Big Impact ? : No Problem……..

At least,Superstorm Sandy warned us that the disasters are threaten people around the world, including U.S. The panic people should less if they receive transparency information, like the EPA’s IRIS Program, so we hope everything you know should be inform to the people……!
