Poop Train
This is absolutely bewildering to me.
For how long have taxpayers been footing the bill to transport poo sludge across the country?
Parrish, Alabama:
For upwards of two months, a train brimming with sewage sludge has been squatting uninvited near fields used for youth baseball, simmering in the afternoon sun, making its noisome presence known even in the darkness of night. In a word, Mayor Heather Hall told The Associated Press earlier this week, "it smells like death." As NPR's Jacob Pinter pointed out earlier this month, the stuff in question comes from New York and New Jersey, which, to resolve complications with local regulations, often avoid those regulations entirely by regularly shipping their waste across state lines to areas with looser zoning laws.
"simmering in the afternoon sun" :: Yuck! This had to smell horrid!
