Contaminated pond ordered closed at Clean Harbors Colfax
10/17/2016
The retention pond at Clean Harbors Colfax in Grant Parish will be closed following tests that show it had levels of toxins that exceeded standards.
Water from the contaminated pond is released into tributaries that ultimately carry it to the Red River.
State Department of Environmental Quality Secretary Chuck Carr Brown tells The Town Talk (http://townta.lk/2dQ8jvA) Clean Harbors Colfax has been directed to get rid of the pond and replace it with a system "that will provide greater protections to human health and the environment."
