US EPA sets lower Selenium levels for water coming from coal mining

EPA wants lower Selenium levels in Koocanusa downstream of the Elk river coal mines. New mines coming on-line are only going to increase pollution. Looks like an international disagreement is looming.

CDN Govt limit @ 1 ppb. Alberta limit raised to 2 ppb.

Looks like BC limit is 2ppb as well.

Corporations just need to keep sending cheques to the political party in power so they don't drop the limit I guess.
