MEDICAL: DISEASES: EBOLA VIRUS : UNITED STATES: STATES: LOUISIANA : FEAR : UNITED STATES: POLITICS: POLITICAL PARTIES: REPUBLICAN PARTY, TEA PARTY : INDUSTRIES: PETROLEUM INDUSTRY: And the Prize for Ebola Fearmongering Goes to Louisiana . . And the Prize for Ebola Fearmongering Goes to Louisiana By Tim Murphy Monday October 13, 2014 1:40 PM EDT Mother Jones http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2014/10/buddy-caldwell-louisiana-ebola . .Louisiana Attorney General Buddy Caldwell has a plan to stop Ebola: File a restraining order. Caldwell, a Republican, called the proposal to dispose of Dallas Ebola victim Eric Duncan's incinerated belongings at a Lake Charles landfill "absurd" and pledged to use the legal process to stop the transfer.
. snip .Caldwell, whose decision was quickly supported by GOP Gov. Bobby Jindal, didn't offer any details on how burying the incinerated materials would affect the people of his state. It's hard to see any riskEbola is transmitted only through bodily fluids, and Chemical Waste Management Inc., which operates the storage facility, sees no problem. And it's not as if the ashes are going particularly far, anywayLake Charles is just a quick jaunt over I-10 from Port Arthur, Texas, where Duncan's belongings were burned.
.But Caldwell's stance is especially bizarre in light of the great lengths Louisiana lawmakers have gone to position the state as a repository for every other kind of waste. Fracking waste disposal, for instance, has become a $30 billion industry nationwide over the last decade. Much of that wastewater has been dumped into old wells in Louisiana. Louisiana may also soon begin accepting thousands of tons of other states' shale wastewater, which will be shipped down the Mississippi on barges.
