Cross-state pollution in reverse?

Wyoming dumps tons of mercury and other heavy metal oxides every year on South Dakota from coal burning power plants and researchers at the South Dakota School of Mines know most of the toxins in the state's lakes have precipitated from emissions released by plants in North Dakota, Montana and Wyoming. And, if South Dakota had a Democratic attorney general she'd sue those states for the poisoned legacy created by Colstrip, Basin Electric and Black Hills Energy. One of the most polluted reaches of the Belle Fourche River goes right through current Republican Attorney General Marty Jackley's boyhood ranch

So pick your poison, Republicans.
