Why don't you guys go ahead without
me, and l'll get a ride with Ed.
1:10:04
-No, Mom.
-No, sweetie, l'll be right behind you.
1:10:08
I'll be right behind you, all right?
1:10:10
-I really-- This is so--
-Fine. Go, go, go.
1:10:18
Get down, bud.
1:10:23
Hang on tight there.
1:10:25
Help your sister
with her shoes. Let's go.
1:10:43
This is so helpful.
Is it okay if I write this down?
1:10:47
I have so many questions.
1:10:48
I wanna know about how the plant works
and the cooling towers, just everything.
1:10:52

1:10:53
They use the hexachrome here, in these
cooling towers, as an anticorrosive.
1:10:58
Then they dump the excess
water into these ponds.
1:11:01
I don't remember seeing
any ponds up there.
1:11:04
They've been covered over,
and not too carefully.
1:11:07
If you dig one inch
under the surface...
1:11:10
...dirt's as green
as a fucking shamrock.
1:11:12
And that's what
caused the contamination?
1:11:15
It didn't help, but no.
The problem started on the bottom.
1:11:19
According to...
1:11:23
...this...
1:11:24
...in most cases you would
line these ponds...
1:11:27
...so the shit didn't seep
into the ground.
1:11:30
-But guess what?
-They skipped that step?
1:11:33
Here are the ponds,
the plume comes down...
1:11:36
...and Hinkley is down here...
1:11:39
...it's 1 4 years of hexachrome
flowing into the groundwater.
1:11:43
Jesus.
1:11:45
This guy just offered
all this information?
1:11:48
Well, yeah. Nelson cares
what's in those ponds.
1:11:51
He used to spend time wading
around them. That was his job.
1:11:54
Shit.
