Talk:CCB Literature Review

From BurningBook

Lit Review Outline

1. Main Premise
   1. There is a consensus in the literature that CCB's are dangerous when disposed of at poorly selected sites or without adequate protective measures.
   2. We will demonstrate that:
      1. Cumberland Park is a poor site for disposal
      2. Necessary safeguards that ensure public and ecosystem safety are being bypassed.
2. Dangers of CCB's
   1. What the EPA's classification as "non-hazardous" actually means
   2. Evidence of danger to humans
   3. Evidence of danger to ecosystems
3. Location in a floodplain exacerbates these risks
   1. Leaching
      1. Clay liner is insufficient
      2. Site monitoring is necessary
   2. Catastrophic Failure
      1. Design Flaws
      2. Fault Zone
      3. Case Studies
4. How the Beneficial Use clause is being exploited
5. Why this project is bad for everyone but AEP
   1. Waste will leak, any GCPE proceeds will be spent on site remediation, not school funding
   2. Unsuitability of site for construction/Liability to developers
   3. Giles Cancer rate is already too high
      1. Give exact number on cancer increase given in Draft Risk Assesment
      2. Even one life is not worth sacrificing for this project
   4. Repercussions on tourism industry
6. Closing Statement
