Duke Energy caught dumping coal ash directly into river 61 million gallons

This is why we don't need a EPA am I right? Corporations will do the right thing....

Duke Energy has been pumping coal ash for the last year, perhaps longer directly into Fear River in N.C. This is the 8th time in less than a month that Duke has been cited for environmental regulations. In Febuary one of their trains derailed and spilled tens of thousands of gallons of coal ash into Dan River between VA and NC.

People on the West coast of FL might remember Duke energy as being the company whom was allowed to charge their customers for a new power plant before it was built but never built it, instead pocketing over $1.5 billion of their customers money.
