the only toxic in east ky is the fact that we still have people with straight pipes into our streams!! mtn top removal is not polluting anything!!!!! you say we pollute when we chop of the mtn and dump in or near a stream!! BS, the run off from a hollow fill is the same damn runoff as if it was still on top of the mtn!! take your list and put it where the sun don't shine!!!

Everyone has their own opinion, here's mine.... unless you live here in Eastern KY, back off! To truly have your opinion even count you need to live in our area and live our way of life.

There are just as many people employed in Eastern KY growing marijuana who make a whole lot more money than a coal miner but they are arrested. Does the fact they make money make it OK. They just want to get the coal for as cheap as they can and leave the total wreckage behind.

I think we should work on getting our own engery in the US first before anything. With out the coal our gas prices will run sky high.

If anything there should be more so America can stand on its own.
