Sulphur Springs Mercury Hair-Testing Event

Last week, folks in Sulphur Springs gathered at their local Pizza Hut to talk about the effects of a lignite mine in their backyards and the Monticello coal plant, only an hour away. About twenty people were in attendance, and nine folks got their hair tested.
