The state attorney general’s office has determined there is insufficient evidence to seek criminal charges in the disposal of radioactive waste in an Estill County landfill.
Still, a number of residents plan to rally this weekend. Tom Bonny is with the newly created Concerned Citizens of Estill County. “We’re just very concerned that this landfill could become a dumping ground for any and everything and would cause a risk to the citizens who live around it on all sides of it,” said Bonny.
Bonny says a major worry is the amount of material, its radioactive half-life, and its proximity to schools. The rally is scheduled for five o clock tomorrow night at the Estill County High School.?
