from our friend, Matt Wasson, On the morning of December 22, the earthen dam at the Kingston Power Plant failed, unleashing … more than a billion gallons of coal sludge … the Exxon Valdez spilled a “mere” 11 million gallons of crude oil. And the coal fly ash spill in Harriman is three times larger than the October, 2000 coal sludge spill in Martin County, Kentucky, which the EPA called “the largest environmental disaster east of the Mississippi.”
