I asked questions, dickhead...I blamed no one. And, EPA does have authority. All while BDI blamed GPC....

She can't do that.

Neither can you. Unless you are the one doing the fixing? But if I understand the issue and by now I have learned a lot about it. A dryer isn't the problem but the filtration systems within. If 100 million plus isn't a serious attempt to fix the ---problem? then what else are they to do? I have been looking at some reports on-line that suggest that the particulate matter actually polluting is at times, hundreds od percentages above the accepted level and under the last ten years of EPA standards, no changes yet, that they just paid the fines and kept on polluting. Since all reports are subjective I'm----

Just asking.


And your beloved EPA gladly took the fine money, but took no action to stop the violations you allude to, over those ten years? So, you stress wrong-doing by GPC (kept on polluting), but not the 10 yr ineffectiveness of your beloved EPA? Have you also researched what they did with the fine monies, miss researcher-of-late?

Ah, BS, would you prefer that the "beloved EPA" have the authority to shut the place down and use that authotity?

If not, don't blame them for lack of action.

 

No sir.

I don't blame GPC I don't care really. I do however see the other side as most seem to fail in that way. So, lets see here, the EPA is at fault? and that particular EPA was a Bush tenured system of environmental protection. getting government outta the way so businesses can grow, was the mantra all those years. So I guess there is yet another party to assess blame too. I also don't care what they did with the money. It obviously wasn't to aid a sick and broke community or nation was it?  A real good point by Mallory too was that you don't seem to understand your own complaint here. Do you want regulation or do you not want regulation in such matters? After all it's much more an issue now then any other time even under clinton. But Bush by God was right on track with helping the job creators and somehow that's the EPA's fault. Beginning to see the big picture.

Probably not---------obama's still there messing around with regulations. Not.

I'll take a stab at the source of BdI's Bush hate.

 

1.  She lost her job teaching after NCLB came in because she couldn't cut the mustard.

 

or

 

2.  "She" is really Prof. Joe and he has a long standing tactic of blaming Bush for everything.  And a long standing tactic of declaring moral equivalency in everything.

I went nose to nose with Professor Joe on many occasions, and just not getting the "Joe" vibe here.  I think what we have here is just another liberal who's hiding her/his shame at being a liberal with a lot of double talk.

 

Remember the Bird lady?

You say they should do a better job of filtering - that is exactly why they are building a 100+ million dollar dryer. I am sure that the date of completion is probably at least a couple of years away, but it appears that clam and/or the plaintiffs in the lawsuit think that their actions will make it happen sooner.

There's a lot going on down there that a dryer won't fix.

I got my invitation to join the suit today.


Won't fix??? So now mallcontent is an expert on corn processing. We'll put that one up on the blackboard with Iowa nitrogen in the Gulf, and how Stanley's manages their construction contracts....


Please tell us what is "going on down there that a dryer won't fix."

We, along with the EPA were told that was what was needed for the emissions and now msmal says that won't fix the air quality? So let us know what else needs to be done before we all die a premature death - well, some us would die prematurely, others maybe not.

A couple of things for sure.    Their waste water will not be sent through the dryer.   Not an air quality issue but still an emissioins issue.   The flue gas from their boiler, likewise.   I don't think a dryer reduces SO2.
