[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 351621, member: 337"] Maybe you can answer why they're doing it in ND rather than MN? If not - why bemoan my asking? Seems as though you're not sure what it is they're bringing in either - or how monstrous the waste stream is going to be or what it contains. But you seem confident the EPA has a handle on making sure they don't pollute. Like how brine spills don't eff things up out west - even though the EPA says they shouldn't happen? Does this project seek relief via the Bevill Exclusion? Heck if I know. [B]The Bevill Exclusion The Bevill exclusion exempts from RCRA Subtitle C regulation solid waste from ore and mineral extraction, beneficiation, and 20 mineral processing wastes. The 20 exempt mineral processing wastes are: 1. Slag from primary copper processing; 2. Slag from primary lead processing; 3. Red and brown muds from bauxite refining; 4. Phosphogypsum from phosphoric acid production; 5. Slag from elemental phosphorus production; 6. Gasifier ash from coal gasification; 7. Process wastewater from coal gasification; 8. Calcium sulfate wastewater treatment plant sludge from primary copper processing; 9. Slag tailings from primary copper processing; 10. Fluorogypsum from hydrofluoric acid production; 11. Process wastewater from hydrofluoric acid production; 12. Air pollution control dust/sludge from iron blast furnaces; 13. Iron blast furnace slag; 14. Treated residue from roasting/leaching of chrome ore; 15. Process wastewater from primary magnesium processing by the anhydrous process; 16. Process wastewater from phosphoric acid production; 17. Basic oxygen furnace and open hearth furnace air pollution control dust/sludge from carbon steel production; 18. Basic oxygen furnace and open hearth slag from carbon steel production; 19. Chloride process waste solids from titanium tetrachloride production; and 20. Slag from primary zinc processing.[/B] I don't know enough about this project to claim there will be a problem - but based on the track record for this type of thing it [B]might [/B]well happen. What I was saying at the very outset is that this is driven by an EV mandate and big $$$$. Like Solyndra was driven by mandate and $$$$$. These types of boondoggles often leave projects under bankruptcy - then guess whose problem it becomes? The taxpayers. As per usual. The little guy pays the price for big $$$ making bigger $$$. [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solyndra[/URL] I'm anything but an environmentalist - but I don't like unnecessary pollution/destruction either. [/QUOTE]
