EPA Spills 1 Mln Gallons Mine Waste in Colorado River Turning It Orange
The Environmental Protection Agency is warning residents to keep away from a river in Colorado after accidentally spilling mine waste water into it.
The EPA was investigating the abandoned Gold King Mine on Wednesday together with the state Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, when they triggered the release of the waste into Cement Creek, a tributary of the Animas River in San Juan County.
Ironically, the initial goal was to find a safe way to pump out the wastewater and treat it.
Some one million gallons of wastewater is estimated to have been discharged during the incident. The spill turned water in the river bright orange.
