Description

A sign along the slough of the Columbia River warns residents and their pets to avoid all sloughs, dikes and drainage ditches due to potential contamination with chemicals from the Longview mill implosion.

Emergency response crews at the site of the Longview mill disaster have pushed “hundreds of feet” deeper into previously unreachable areas at the paper-making plant, accelerating the painstaking recovery effort, officials said.
