TVA DISCOVERS DECADES OLD CONSTRUCTION WASTE AT KINGSTON FOSSIL PLANT
TVA officials said they recently found a decades-old scrap metal area at the Kingston Fossil Plant in Roane County. Material including charred wood, metal, and other construction-related debris was found while crews cleared land as a part of a permitted landfill expansion. Officials believe some of the material found may be from when the land was privately owned. Initial reports show some of the material includes asbestos, which will require additional abatement before removal to an approved landfill.
