BREAKING: Tesla did a whoopsie at their Fremont factory and polluted a bunch of water (pretty bad) and they can't keep it contained to their property. Levels of major pollutants massively over what's legal. Huge mess, no surprise. Link below is to a PDF. www.envirostor.dtsc.ca.gov/getfile?file...

Not to be That Guy, but I put out the warning about this back in 2022. I only had docs then that showed part of the problem with PCE, far from the whole picture, but literally nobody reported on this. Also, these were PUBLIC DOCS POSTED ONLINE. Not exactly All The President's Men shit.

I assume they're using perc for brake cleaning, unless they're dry cleaning his clothes. I started my career doing pump tests of groundwater at closed dry cleaning plants and that stuff is nasty and very toxic. I am surprised/not surprised they're using it.

Where are they getting the gasoline and diesel from? Seems an unusual pollutant for an electric car manufacturing plant.

Various equipment at the plant probably still runs on dino juices in addition to the remnants from the NUMMI years

Oh, everything does. First of all, everything is always under construction there, so all of that. They have EPA violations related to generators, apparently they run lots of gennies. All of the logistics vehicles. Forklifts are propane, not electric (at Fremont, last I checked).

See, using lots of generators has me wondering what the fuck they're doing there ngl
