Honest George: Idaho Picks Potlatch Over Lewiston
RE: Potlatch sends mixed message on toxic emissions
In the past the emmissions from the pulp mill were so toxic that it actually affected the paint on homes. "Smell the pulp mill? Sure - its the smell of money" was the popular local response. But as time passed citizens became more demanding with the realization that it had become a danger to health as well as a major irritant. It's a problem that presently is at least partly under control because of efforts by the EPA and local activists, But now that DEQ has primacy and IACI is carrying Potlatch's water it really looks like Lewiston is being led to the slaughter house by the the Idaho government and the Ada County rich toads that run this state/Honest George.
Question: Do you think the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality does a good job protecting the environment and Idahoans?
