If you’ve been reading the past postings here, you’ll know about the TVA ash spill incident a couple month’s back. Well, there’s been a lot going on since then, as the Engineering-News Record reports:
TVA says it will likely switch from wet to dry storage at all its coal plants and sell all qualifying ash for use as a cement replacement in ready-mix concrete.
TVA also has filed a detailed dredging plan to begin clearing the Emory River.
