Friday Uprising: Salt Lake Oil Spill

Friday Uprising HomepageSALT LAKE CITY, UT (krcl) – An estimated 33,000 gallons of crude oil were released into Utah waterways this past weekend. Ashley welcomes local resident and biologist Peter Hayes, Chevron representative Dan Johnson, retired biologist Ty Harrison and Lynn De Freitas from Friends of the Great Salt Lake to discuss the human and ecological impact of the disaster. In the latter part of the show, we welcome Antonia Juhasz, author of The True Cost of Chevron: An Alternative Annual Report. Juhasz argues that the Salt Lake spill is not unusual given Chevron’s global track record.
