Listen "Ep. 41 When the Laws Don't Apply: Air Pollution and Grandfathered Plants"
Episode Synopsis
What happens when a refining plant is grandfathered in to standards that precede the Clean Air Act? An incentivized structure for pollution. We talk with two Grist reporters who share their story of digging into the Oxbow Calcining Plant in Port Arthur Texas to discover a history of evading regulators and polluting carcinogenic chemicals at otherwise impermissible levels.
