    This is not good. The damage to the eco system once again is an issue.

    Guess we will never learn. :(

    Excerpt:

    "It is still not known why part of the reservoir collapsed and allowed an estimated 35 million cubic feet (1 million cubic meters) of waste to sweep through the villages, killing at least four people and leaving three missing. Disaster officials said over 150 people had been treated at hospitals and 11 were still in serious condition Thursday."

    The pH levels of the water were as high as 13, which is very basic.

    I'm assuming the waste was caustic soda, NaOH (drain cleaner), which has a high pH. It's a by-product of cleaning aluminum. The metals in the waste probably give it a red color.
