Will Anyone Take The Toxic-Laden Camp Fire Debris From Paradise? [1]

"Disaster officials say they need to start removing millions of tons of rubble from Paradise – and soon – so the town can begin recovering from the Camp Fire.

That much is certain. The question is where to put the rubble.

For the second time in two weeks, FEMA and state officials have run into local opposition over plans to open a large but temporary scrapyard to sort and process truckloads of concrete and metal rubble from burned-out Paradise."
