Controvery surrounds Florida's Department of Environmental Protection order that paper giant, Georgia-Pacific, renew its search to find ways to clean the waste water released from its Palatka, FL plant. The order is based on DEP February, 2009 findings that the toxic chemical dioxin is still being detected in waterways downstream from the plant. A company representative indicates that dioxin is not present at dangerous levels while enviornmental activists contend that Georgia-Pacific will simply fund studies that prove they are not culpable.
