A lake of toxic goo looms over Marsh Fork Elementary.

What a disgusting mess.

Blasting above an earthen dam holding billions of gallons of toxic sludge above an elementary school? How does the industry get away with this? Why do regulators and politicians continue to allow this situation? How much of a campaign contribution does it take to allow this to go on?

The mine site grows bigger and bigger.

The drainge-catchment for the mine site is the coal sludge dam.

Words don't suffice.

A different view of the dam face, prep plant and the Marsh Fork Elementary School.
