Here we go again: Duke Energy to pollute a river with toxic Coal Ash. Glad DrumpF made it okay .

Dam breach at Wilmington Duke Energy plant; coal ash could be spilling into Cape Fear River.
Duke Energy said Friday that a dam containing a large lake at Wilmington power plant has been breached by floodwaters from Florence, and it is possible coal ash from an adjacent dump is flowing into the Cape Fear River

Most of the 1.6 billion you highlighted (1.4 billion of it) wasn't a fine/penalty per se but the agreed upon value of the air emission control improvements they are going to make at their plants.

It's usually called a Consent Decree, and it's also used by State governments to force local government to upgrade things like Wastewater treatment plants.

NYC is under several consent decrees, with values in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

It keeps happening. And the Great Douche team made the EPA unable to fine them now.

Those aren't related to the incident itself, and the numbers give no time frame.

Also when someone wants to attack another thing the use of the term "subsidy" gets morphed into "not being taxed or fined into oblivion"

I can see how you can blame Trump. A damn that was built years ago, gets damaged by a natural disaster.

The way to make the environment safer is... We only use wind power. Of course, over 90% of the grid will not have electricity.

Indeed. On the other hand, one can blame this on Obabble:

You must live in an already over-polluted river state.

Why Trump just killed a rule restricting coal companies from dumping waste in streams

 

[pismoe]

BIG DEAL Baz .

-------------------------- naw , not me Baz . But talking pollution . i pretty much discard the concerns as foolishness while saying , its best to NOT Pollute . Take this spill for example , even without cleanup it will dissipate naturally . As examples of oil spills , see how nicely the oil spill from [was it] the Valdez Explorer and how that oil spill dissipated disappeared and then see the oil spill from that 'oil rig' that blew out during 'mrobamas' first term , hey , the problems like dying shrimp , dying grass and stupid birds and other problems are gone Baz .

 

[pismoe]

but my biggest example of oil pollution being of no concern is WW1 and WW2 when millions and millions of gallons of oil , gasoline , diesel fuel , petroleum products , chemicals and other pollutants were dumped into the oceans all the time and there was never a problem that i know about and there was NO cleanup after a ship of any sort was sunk . Sure , DON'T POLLUTE , its simply common sense but pollution is no big deal either . Clean up this coal slurry spill if they decide to but its no big deal Baz .

Thanks for the link.
Killing that rule didn't make it okay to dump coal ash in streams.
They weren't allowed to do that before Obama was in office, while he was in office or today.

Of course natural disasters keep happening.

It's Trump's fault that he is more interested in MAGA for pollution. hurricanes are hardly unknown in NC. This was a disaster waiting to happen thanks to Trump.

He’s an idiotic troll. Everything bad happening in the country is President Trump’s fault, and everything good is because of the Hussein.
