TDEC is not aware of any local sources of mercury to the East Fork Stones River. According to the EPA, atmospheric deposition due to the global burning of coal is the most frequent reason AND IT SETTLED ON THE EAST FORK ???for elevated levels of mercury in fish.

Strange stuff. TVA Steam plants from last reports (Gallatin, Sumner County) have met their average EPA requirements. What industries in Rutherford County burns coal?
