As if the spraying isn’t enough, or the impending pipeline, or the water ruined by toxic algae from the sugar plants, now this.
A massive sinkhole in Florida has allowed millions of gallons of radioactive water to pour into one of the world’s most productive aquifers. On August 27th, crews in a containment pond at the New Wales Mosaic plant in Mulberry, Florida found the sinkhole.
The accident happened at a fertilizer plant near Tampa. The company involved says it believes it can pump the water, containing slightly radioactive phosphogypsum back before it mixes with drinking supplies.
