Coal ash deregulation is not red tape reform. It’s a threat to water, health, and frontline communities. Earthjustice highlights growing public outrage as EPA moves to weaken hard-won safeguards.

ln the best tradition of the Friday afternoon news dump, #EPA has put out announcements on #coalash and #dicamba regs. Anything else coming or can we call it a day?
#Alabama Public #Radio #news helped inspire a new #film at the #Telluride Film Festival in #Colorado. “Sallie’s Ashes” is based on APR’s investigation into #toxic #chemicals killing Alabama neighborhoods.

Things began to change after two major #CoalAsh disasters in our region: Kingston and Dan River. Public pressure after those spills led to the first federal regulations, but they had a lot of loopholes and left out a lot of sites.

#CoalAsh cleanup can’t wait! 🚫 Many vividly remember the 2008 Kingston & 2014 Dan River spills, which led to the first federal regulations on coal ash storage & cleanup. But now, the #EPA is targeting these regulations for rollback.

💧 Over a year after a coal ash spill, MN Power still has no cleanup plan and is violating federal law. The Mississippi River—and our drinking water—is at risk. CURE and allies demand action. Minnesotans deserve better. #Boswell #CoalAsh

For decades, utilities disposed of coal ash — the hazardous substance left after burning coal for energy — by dumping it in unlined ponds and landfills. There are a dozen coal ash dumpsites in Arizona. #CoalAsh #CoalPlants #Arizona via @earthjustice.org / @nrdc.org earthjustice.org/feature/coal...
Idiot Trump's Doings.
Doesn't care about #CoalAsh Spills! He's stuck in the past.
#TVA may maintain some coal powered plants past 2035

Power companies would rather not clean their toxic messes. Trump’s EPA is granting their wish.
Advocates fear the agency will “justify avoiding any enforcement whatsoever” of millions of tons of coal ash nationwide.

I cannot stress how incredibly bad this is for the states and for the entire planet as we lose the climate struggle. Screenshot of trump tweet announcing the end of safe air and opening all coal power plants that were closed to save lives and the entire planet.

Reminds me of the Lake Norman NC and Duke Energys coal ash contamination… the workers knew, the company knew, the politicians knew. Kids are paying for this still #coalash #contamination #dukeenergy #lakenorman @joshsteinnc.bsky.social
Visibility plunging again as thick, white cancer clouds from the fossil fuel coal burning power plants at the river ramp up production.

AQI was 54 yesterday evening and now is shooting back up and is currently at 81 and climbing.
Chart of AQI over the last 24 hours.
AQI is rising quickly.
Fossil Fuel Air Pollution is blanketing the city again from our heavy demand of burning dirty and dangerous coal fossil fuel for cheap energy.
My lungs hurt after walking in it today.
My chest aches.
