epa_report_contradicts_its_stated_reason_for_gold_king_mine_cleanup.htmlAmerican Thinker:

The EPA is a federal agency wildly out of control and not only needs to be reined in, but senior level managers need to be arrested for fraud and corruption.

 

What other conclusion can we reach when we discover that a report on the Gold King mine region's rivers says that it is doubtful they harbored a viable fish population? Saving the fish in tributaries of the Animas River from pollution was the stated reason for a clean up that went disastrously wrong and polluted rivers in three states.

 

Daily Caller:

 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) officials say they need to control a Colorado region because decades of mining there have destroyed a local creek’s fish populations, but an internal report contradicts that claim.

 

Natural toxins pollute Colorado’s Cement Creek – an Animas River tributary – and it’s unclear if those waters supported aquatic life even before human interference, according to the EPA’s April 2015 Baseline Ecological Risk Assessment (BERA) report said.Scissors-32x32.png
