I've been following that incident at Watt's Bar, it looks horrible. Can anyone add anything? Will it ever be usable again? It looks like where the Watt's Bar Rally was held was a total mess. What a shame. I hope it didn't affect anyone here too bad on a personal level such as losing your home.

What happened at Watt's Bar?
Looks like a 40 acre retention pond at the plant that held all the ash from the burnt coal burst and made a huge mess. Couple picture videos of it on youtube. Looks pretty crappy.

Bunch of pictures on there, can navigate to the story from there too. Or just google TVA news and you'll come up with a lot of stuff.

+1 Man that looks like a bad deal!!!
Called Glenn this morning he said he and Jeff are fine. Junior had a bit of a mess. It's pretty messy but not the end of the world he says. He also said he has not seen a single dead fish other than the ones that washed up on the bank in the initail surge. He said if it was going to happen, 1am was probaly the best time. No school kids and minimal traffic.
Hope it works out for all involved.
