Duke Energy can deny the nastiness of their seeping, leaking coal ash ponds all they want. The People are waking up and doing their own testing and finding out the truth for their selves. The lawsuits (more of them), they are acomin ... and Dukes shareholders should be screaming mad, because this sort of contamination could have been prevented. Excerpt: Gobble, who lives alongside Duke Energy’s Buck Steam Station in a Rowan County community called Dukeville, discovered six months ago that water in her family’s well contains the carcinogen hexavalent chromium, also known as chromium-6. Since then, they have armed themselves with bottled water and a growing pile of empty jugs they fill up across town where they know the water isn’t tainted. She believes the potentially cancer-causing contaminant is seeping in from the leaking coal ash pond next door. It’s a charge Duke Energy vigorously denies. america.aljazeera/articles/2014/10/8/dukesville-nc-dontdrinkthewaterlocalsandactivistswarn.html
