Not in My Lifetime
The report details how the Northern Indiana Public Service Corporation (NIPSCO) contaminated the drinking water of Town of Pines, Indiana, by disposing of coal combustion waste in an unlined landfill and using it for road construction. It highlights the failure of state and federal agencies to protect residents, the resulting health threats—particularly to children—and the legal actions taken by the community. The authors call on the EPA to reclassify coal combustion waste as hazardous and implement rigorous federal disposal standards.
