East Liverpool: a green litmus test for Clinton
Article Abstract:
Residents of East Liverpool, OH have demanded for a reevaluation of a government policy that would allow the operation of the world's biggest hazardous waste incinerator located in their town. The facility was built in 1981 by the Waste Technologies Industries. During their presidential campaign, Pres Bill Clinton and VP Al Gore have promised that once they are elected, they will direct the EPA not to permit a test burn prior to the incinerator's operation. However, the test was conducted towards the end of the Bush administration.
