Here is the beginning of the proof that will begin to emerge about the real intention and criminality of what is quite possibly happening here in Western NC. Independent thinkers, people who actually care about the people here, are doing their own investigating. This is the first report I have seen. Another that I know of is set to come out later today 12/4. Dangerous levels of Uranium, Lithium, and lead were found. Other contaminents were also found outside the normal limits.
Embreville, TN and Chimney Rock, NC (Chimney Rock is closer to where I live and closer to Piedmont Lithium Mining Co.) were the two test sites. The test from Chimney Rock was out of a well that was compromised by the flood. The one in TN was taken from a firehouse that was flooded.
I found an article that shows there were contaminents found downstream from the Nuclear Fuel System company located in Erwin TN back in 2010. So we are supposed to "accept" that even though this site flooded from Helene there is no contaimination even after it states that there was damage at the site and there was flooding at the site? WHATEVER was compromised, is now hundreds of miles down river, in the ground, in the water. Can someone explain how a nuclear fuel company was allowed to build that close to a river?!
That's just one company. NFS Is located at an Industrial Park! ALL of which suffered complete and utter destruction. All of that material and contaminents now in the river, in the ground surrounding the river for hundreds of miles. There is another, a PVC production plant in Asheville, that was completely destroyed as well. To my knowledge, the ONLY extensive testing being done, in wide scale, is by these private citizens using donations from American citizens to do this testing. The only testing by govt entities is of the town and city water supply.
There are two distinct issues. The first is simply contamination due to the flood. The other is the levels of lithium being found, naturally, along the rivers and in the mountains. A mineral our govt is desperate to mine and produce. With brand new battery plants now being completed in SC. Now, thanks to the level of damage, the mining methods, which require MASSIVE amounts of water can now be achieved. They can simply dam up these vast, now open areas, created by the flooding, to gather all the water needed to aid mining operations. How convenient.

There is another company, Standard Lithium, in partnership with Koch Industries who have just received a grant for their new "project" worth $225 million dollars from the USDOE. Isn't it interesting just how close this company is to NC, the newest source of lithium mining? This, is in addition to the Piedmont Lithium contract with the DOD who just signed a contract worth 90 million. Those are the ones I know of so far ....
Our beautiful mountains have been permanently destroyed. Thats the very sad reality. A warning that should be heeded by every American who owns land. If they want it, THEY WILL TAKE IT, the Constitution be damned.
