Hi Oncee, You might be interested to know that West Virginia has the 5th highest polluter of mercury into water in the country. It's a PPG plant that makes chlorine using a really outdated technology, located near Wheeling, WV. Last year they put more than 1200 pounds of mercury into West Virginia's environment.
