Pat Banks, right, head of the Kentucky Riverkeeper, talks Tuesday with artists Ron Taylor of Richmond, from left, Elaine Conradi of Harlan County and Blythe Jamieson of Midway about the impact of coal mining and burning on the Kentucky River watershed. In the background is Eastern Kentucky Power Cooperative’s Dale generating plant on the river in Clark County. Between the plant and the artists is the sludge pond into which the plant’s coal waste is discharged.
