Blasting Legislation To Rock The House Industrial Impact Committee
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Blasting Legislation To Rock The House Industrial Impact Committee
Nashville, TN - On November 3rd at 8 am in LP-31 at Legislative Plaza The House of Representatives
will meet to study HB1562.
This bill will remove a law that, since 1975, preempts county governments from enacting necessary laws to protect the public.
Since 1975 insurance companies have been able to avoid paying out untold millions of dollars in claims. As a result, hundreds of families across Tennessee each year have suffered property damage and/or physical and psychological trauma leading to in one instance suicide.
Currently, if developers are blasting more than 300 feet away from a home that is damaged by Rayleigh waves coming from the blast site the property owner has no legal recourse.
It is a scientific fact that Rayleigh waves(4hz to 20hz) in limestone travel 2,300 feet per second, roughly twice the speed of sound.
Join Andrew McElroy and Nina Ground on November 3rd in Room LP-31 at Legislative Plaza at 8:00 am as we break down the scientific basis again for why counties need local authority for blasting regulation. Please visit BlastingFacts.org for more information about the blasting issue in Tennessee.
If you own a home in Tennessee, this meeting is for you.
