Phosphate mining company Mosaic reported that a sinkhole opened beneath a pile of waste material at a mine in Polk County, leaking 200 million gallons of radioactive waste into Florida’s main aquifer. Although Mosaic informed regulators including DEP about the incident on August 27th, the public was not informed until September 15th.
Sign on to our letter demanding the Office of Inspector General (OIG) fully investigate why Gov. Scott’s DEP actively covered up this incident for weeks rather than informing the public of a potential public health threat. here
