WASHINGTON -- A power plant located in Jefferson County accounts for nearly half of Arkansas' air emissions of mercury, a toxin that is harmful to the developing brains of children and fetuses, according to a report released Thursday by a watchdog group.
The White Bluff coal-fired power plant near Redfield produced 460 pounds of mercury air emissions in 2003, 48 percent of the 962 pounds produced in the state, according to the U.S. PIRG Education Fund.
The Jefferson County plant is owned by New Orleans-based Entergy Corp. An Entergy plant in Independence County produced 370 pounds and an American Electric plant in Benton County produced 132 pounds of the state's total mercury emissions, according to the report.
