The new source of power
is not money
in the hands of a few,
but information
in the hands of many.

Inspector General to Probe EPA Marketing of Coal Ash

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
November 4, 2009

PEER

The Office of Inspector General for the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency has opened an investigation into the agency's
"partnership" with the coal industry to market coal ash and other
combustion wastes in consumer, agricultural and industrial products,
according to a report issued this week. The action underlines concerns
raised by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) that
EPA has been promoting the massive re-use of toxic coal ash without
understanding the long-term public health or environmental
consequences.
