EPA pulled the plug on the mine. Animas River fricked.
I wonder how much they'll be fined.....

The accident happened Wednesday morning when EPA mine crews were trying to deal with dangerous levels of toxic wastewater filling up the abandoned mine. Only a dirt barrier kept the crumbling mine opening from leaking into Cement Creek. And as the EPA crew was working, the wastewater blew through the barrier.

The EPA doesn't know jack about clean up, all they are good for is over regulation and it appears they didn't follow their regs on this one.

Rightfully so. It was a pretty vague title lol.

Yes. Overregulation is why toxic wastewater filled an abandoned mine.

The free market never would have filled that that mine with anything except jobs and economic growth.
