I watched the coal industry poison our water for years. Now theyre telling us not to drink the water? Weve been dumping this stuff into unlined ponds and into old mines for years, he says. This MCHM was just one of the chemicals we were told was highly toxic but that we dumped into old mine shafts and slurry ponds, and its been seeping into the groundwater for years. It sounds bad even before Stanley explains that coal mines are constantly pumped to clear ground water, aquifers, and underground streams: As soon as were out of that mine it immediately fills with water. And where does it go from there? I dont know, youre guess is as good as mine.
