A problem, afaik, anywhere, particularly in the American West, where mining was common and unregulated.

Yes, no shortage out this way. Gosh, starting to think about it wow there are so many places that we are poisoning our food supply. Then there is the mining capers back east too and they are doing the same pretty much. With water like this farm raising seafood is out. Of course now anybody anywhere can sell "meat" in our markets and no disclosures of where it came from.

So much for "being good custodians of our planet" and "leaving the country a better place to be for future generations" like they used to say when I was a young pup.
