Pennsylvania: "Final Fly Ash Clean-up Begins" [1]

"Nearly five years after fly ash and other debris flowed down Rostosky Ridge Road in Forward Township, work was expected to begin to remove the final remains of that slide.

The last phase of the clean-up will take place along a stream channel in the valley below River Hill Road, the state Department of Environmental Resources reported. The ash removal will follow the stream channel from the slide area, down Rostosky Ridge Road to the Monongahela River - a distance of approximately one mile."

Chris Buckley reports for the Valley Independent January 18, 2010.
