i heard about it by pressing my ear to a sea shell, after which it promptly fell off.
Just curious about how many have actually heard of the toxic spill in Colorado by the EPA.
...the Navajo Nation’s president and vice president are telling people to not sign EPA compensation forms for damage and injury caused by the spill. From KOB-TV in Albuquerque:The EPA says that although they have six months to resolve a claim, it “will make every effort” to respond to claims for this particular incident “as soon as possible.”
But Wednesday, Navajo President Russell Begaye sent a directive to cease any promotion of the form, saying it contains “offending language that will waive future claims for individuals that sign the form and preclude [Navajos] from seeking full compensation for injuries suffered from the spill.”
A disclaimer near the bottom of the first page of the form says: “I certify that the amount of claim covers only damages and injuries caused by the incident above and agree to accept said amount in full satisfaction and final settlement of this claim.”
The Navajo Nation directive says that if people sign the form, they forfeit any further compensation for damages suffered beyond the date it is signed, leaving the possibility that people affected years down the road will not receive any further compensation.
heard it on npr, but that's the only place I've seen anything
A couple of days ago I went through several news sites, NY Times, CNN, FOX News, MSNBC, NBC News, Huffington Post, and Breitbart, only MSNBC and Breitbart had anything on their front page, and you still had to scroll down to see it. Doesn't mean its not on those sites, just buried way deeper than I was willing to go using only a few minutes on each page. I was doing this after about half of my friends hadn't heard of the spill. So I decided to see if I could poll a larger audience.
3 million gallon toxic spill.
Ohhhh, the scary "conspiracy theory" codeword. Nothing to see here, folks, just some crazies. Move on.I hadn't seen anything on it pass by from any mainstream news, but some of my conspiracy theorist friends have posted articles to Facebook about how the EPA planned to release the toxic water and that kind of stuff.
We'll have to see if they get the status and money they want to see if there's any credence to his theory.The proposed Red & Bonita plugging plan has been their way of getting a foot in the door to justify their hidden agenda for a treatment plant.
