"The corporation also failed to address another significant question: What was the composition of the spill? The Environmental Integrity Project, a Washington D.C. nonprofit, decided to dig through the complex data to find the answer. It estimated that 140,000 pounds of arsenic had spilled into the Emory River, as well as huge quantities of mercury, aluminum and selenium. In fact, the single spill in Kingston released more chromium, lead, manganese, and nickel into the environment than the entire U.S. power industry spilled in 2007."
