Where Does It Go?

Where does it go?

Fly ash is being dumped about a mile south of Bokoshe at the Thumbs Up Ranch* Disposal site. The disposal pit is not lined. The fly ash trucks come from the AES plant down Highway 31 to Bokoshe. At Sassy’s Cafe they turn south to the fly ash dumping pit. At the pit, they pull up to a hopper dumping the fly ash where it mixes with water to make slurry and runs off into the quarry. Then they return the same way to AES to pick up another load. There are 8 trucks running about 10 loads each a day. As each load is dumped billowing clouds of fly ash permeates the air we breathe. As the trucks return to AES they leave behind a cloud of dust invading every aspect of our lives. But where else it goes is another story.

Truck Dumping Fly Ash - Bokoshe, OK

Truck One Mile East of Bokoshe Going Back To AES

Radiation levels rising.

Slow death is in the air.

Every thing’s mutating but nobody seems to care.

Now our children have to live with the changes that we make.

The whole earth has suffered from the chances that we take.

We say that’s the price of progress and we have no other choice.

Can we make an honest effort? Can see beyond our greed?
