Does anyone know the status
By: deerlickholler

Does anyone know the status of the remaining retention ponds? Have these also not been exposed to the same rain, freeze/thaw, erosion as the one that blew out? If the force of the blow-out on 12/22 was powerful enough to demolish an island, a couple of houses, a few hundred acres, what did it do to the dike next door?

The remaining ponds are very shallow and are only 8 feet or so above lake levl. There was damage to one of the walls on the lower pond but that has been repaired. I personally don't have any fears that we'll have a problem with the other ones but I'll pose the question on an inspection tour I will be on in the next few days.

I think we need to push TVA to stop building the new site for the ash from the new tower that is directly across from Kingston.
