NC Coal Ash, Radiation, & Cancer Map

This is the most recent map. It’s under construction, so check back often for updates.

Radiation symbols are the contaminated coal fired plants.

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 where it could be poured like a liquid.

The Ra symbols are places where we have tested for radiation.

Cancer ribbons are areas with high cancer rates.
