The biggest soot polluter in the region is on King County land. Should it be?
Kim Malcolm talks with investigative reporter Robert McClure about the Ardagh Group's glass recycling plant in south Seattle.
This fall, the King County Council will decide whether to renew the plant's lease, which sits on 17 acres of King County land. McClure says the plant is the single largest emitter of soot in the Puget Sound region.
McClure is executive director of Investigate West, a non-profit newsroom based in Seattle.
