Ascension Parish plans to cover red dust with dirt, waiting on state approval
It was windy on Tuesday. That coupled with the drought conditions caused red dust to fly in parts of Ascension Parish. The dust comes from a closed aluminum plant that people have been complaining about for years, but all parties involved say they have been working on a plan since October to make changes. Several parties involved tell 2 On Your Side its waiting on a signature from the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality.
