The second photo is taken just above the middle yellow diamond on this map, that's less than 100km from Sydney, these fires started more than a month ago, but weren't supposed to begin till early January. Country hosed, so what.

Water is still a thing, but chicken feathers grandfathered in from the way back days when farmers drove birds to market. How do they get there now, if they aren't driven there in trucks anymore? Does Scotty beam them up from the farms?

quote:A mysterious greenish liquid that forced lane closures after it seeped onto a Michigan interstate Friday allegedly came from a closed electroplating business whose owner is currently serving a year in federal prison for operating an unlicensed hazardous waste storage facility. This is how a superfund site is born. Some context, this is the stuff they made the movie Erin Brockovich about. It's doubtful he was storing dilute solution, so it's likely inside of his building (and in the ground water table) is contaminated with the full strength stuff. More photos of the actual operation. That's the "sludge" drying in the basement. Note the industrial strength box fan assisting the process. Sludge is likely a mixture of lead chromate, lead, hex chrome, and god knows what else they put into the tanks. The lab. The plating operation itself. Note the steam rising up from one of the tanks. This place was operating when these photos were taken. Yes, the center tank says cyanide. Somewhere buried in all those chemicals is probably leaking drums of potassium cyanide. Finally we tour the open air chemical storage area. I'm not sure how a business can do this. Where I work (in Michigan) we have a few thousand gallons of similar rather nasty chemicals and OSHA, EGLE, and the EPA visits at least once a year. edit : From the court case : quote:The judge decided to the prison sentence instead of probation after Sayers made a comment in court about how he was bitter over government regulations and trade issues that hurt his business.

:smiliewheretheguywalksthroughthedoorandimmediatelydies: In case anyone else was wondering what he was doing with them: quote:The crime related to Sayers’s operation of EPS [Electro-Plating Services, Inc.], which used chemicals such as cyanide, chromium, nickel, chloride, trichloroethylene, and various acids and bases, as part of the plating process. After these chemicals no longer served their intended purpose, they became hazardous wastes, which required handling in compliance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. Rather than having EPS’s hazardous wastes legally transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility, Sayers stored the hazardous waste in numerous drums and other containers, including a pit dug into the ground in the lower level of the EPS building in Madison Heights. For years, Sayers stonewalled state efforts to get him to legally deal the hazardous wastes. Ultimately, the EPA’s Superfund program spent $1,449,963.94 to clean up and dispose of the hazardous wastes. quote:The cleanup was completed in January 2018.

Bullshit, they all say "not responsible for road objects" because they're trying to pass it off like they didn't have an unsecured load, it just got kicked up from the road see? Yeah, that's the ticket!

Icon Of Sin posted:The FIRST cleanup was Yeah, I guess they’ll be going back in and tearing the place apart to remediate. My spouse is a geologist and works for a cleanup firm (mostly Navy bases, which as you can imagine are crazy contaminated) and hexachrome is one of the worst things she has had to deal with. As you can see it gives the water a nice Mountain Dew look.

Reminds me of the guy who ended up being the sole survivor of a volcanic eruption because he was a prisoner: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludger_Sylbaris quote:Sylbaris was ordered to be put into solitary confinement and locked in a single-cell, bomb-proof magazine with stone walls that was built partially underground. The cell did not have windows and was ventilated only through a narrow grating in the door facing away from the volcano. His prison was the most sheltered building in the city, and it was this fact that saved his life. The cell in which he survived still stands today.

They're a bit more expensive but can get into place faster since you can just drive directly up to the dump location without guidance and they have chutes that can be positioned by the driver via hydraulic controls. This makes it more efficient in both loads-per-day gained and by elimination of the need for a 'chute man' (since the driver can do the whole job via line-of-sight).
