I had always been told that the scientist said this method would not work, but I don’t believe they have had the chance to test that theory in the field. I sent that article to a group that I have worked...
*It isn’t discussed in the article, but the samples taken from Reed Creek were obtained by Cancer Cluster Army NC, and an environmental company, that Earthjustice hired to go out with us.

Red x’s are coal ash structural fills, where coal ash was used as dirt. Blue x’s are coal ash flowable fill sites. That means they took coal ash, and added water, sand, maybe some cement, to make the ash...
For over 40 years, Crescent Resources was the home building arm of Duke Energy. Duke began buying up land on the Catawba River in the 1920’s. Around 1969,, most of the land that hadn’t been used to create dams, coal fired and nuclear plants, was handed over to Crescent.

Commissioner Lisa Qualls, who is also a mortgage broker for Movement Mortgage, sent this email to Senator Vickie Sawyer, Representative John Fraley, Mayor Miles Atkins, and Brady Freeman.

This map will show you *Duke Energy’s fourteen contaminated coal fired plants. *Smaller coal fired plants at colleges and textiles *Coal ash reuse permits *NC Dept of Waste coal ash structural fills *NC Dept of Water coal ash structural fills...
