Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. describes how the coal industry illegally filled two thousand miles of U.S. waterways over the past 8 years while mountaintop mining in the Appalachian. After Kennedy successfully sued the companies involved in the practice, coal lobbyists promptly re-defined the meaning of the word "fill" in the Clean Water Act to allow the continuation of the practice.
