Knoxville Barge

At 10:30AM Saturday morning, the ash could be seen on this section of Watts Bar Lake at Kingston, Tennessee. However, by 4PM (when this shot was taken) the ash had disappeared, and life continued.

A working barge, complete with crane is anchored near Kingston, Tennessee, about 5 miles below "ground zero", where the ash slide/spill occurred early Monday morning. An earthen dam broke and 5.6 million cubic yards of coal ash rushed forward, damaging homes, killing fish, and flowing into the Emory River.

It is not known if the ash was churned up by the morning winds and sank, or was pushed on downstream to the Tennessee River.
