Brief Summary:
A coal ash spill in Tennessee created one of the worst environmental disasters in U.S. history, and now, a year later, the problem is spreading to several other states. The arsenic and mercury laced muck has been moving by rail and truck to at least six sites in three states.
Short Response:
The muck is laced with heavy ladens which are linked to cancer, so this is an environmental issue as well as an issue regarding the safety of citizens of these states. If there isn't a way to eliminate the muck it could severly cause harm to people.
