A lead scientist of a study looking at breaches between the Memphis Sand aquifer and the shallow water aquifer above it said that the full findings will be released and presented by the end of the month.
After presenting the current findings to the Memphis City Council Tuesday, Dr. Brian Waldron one of the scientists involved with the study said that the final findings of the research will be released by the end of June. This will tee up the council to hear the full findings as they return for the third reading of an ordinance to regulate pipelines in the city on July 6.
Bob Deacy is the Senior Vice President of General Projects and Fleet Services at TVA.
TVA has been a part of the Memphis community for more than 80 years. We are your neighbor and your community partner.
While there are many discussions underway about our future relationship with MLGW, that does not impact our commitment to the people of Memphis. This includes providing safe, clean, reliable and low-cost electricity; protecting our environment and natural resources; and creating job and business opportunities.
That commitment also includes the safe removal of coal ash which is underway at our former Allen Fossil Plant.
Our efforts to remove coal ash and remediate the Allen site are separate and apart from any discussion relating to MLGW.
