ISS - Coal ash disaster continues to unfold in Tennessee A month has passed since a coal ash waste dam collapsed at the Tennessee Valley Authority’s Kingston power plant in Roane County, Tenn. The disaster unleashed the largest industrial spill in U.S. history — more than a billion gallons of toxic waste in all, 100 times more than was released in the 1989 Exxon Valdez incident in Alaska. How the hell did this go under the radar? I hadn’t heard a lick of it, and I work in news. That’s absurd.
