Monitoring wells at a landfill in Woodbury have turned up an increase in PFCs, but tests of local drinking water show no significant changes. 3M says that's a good sign that a new cleaning system is doing its job.
3M wants permission to burn industrial waste from other companies, as well as its own, at its Cottage Grove incinerator. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency says even with the additional waste 3M will be burning far less than its permit allows. But a group of neighbors is gearing up for a fight at this month's MPCA meeting, saying "pollution for profit" should not be approved.
The company has agreed to clean up groundwater that is now polluted with industrial toxins. But, as the Star Tribune reports, one much harder problem remains: how to remove PFCs from wastewater before the company's manufacturing plant in Cottage Grove sends it into the Mississippi.
Fans of the Cottage View won't be happy, but the drive-in's owner says the finances just don't add up. Fox 9 reports the theater will close to make way for a Wal-Mart.
After more than three-years, a state pollution control board voted unanimously to grant 3M a controversial permit to start burning hazardous waste from other companies at its incinerator. Some residents oppose the plan to import waste because of concerns it will endanger public health. Both 3M and the MPCA dispute those claims.
