HUNGARY-ENVIRONMENT-POLLUTION
Construction vehicles and caterpillars work between the ruptured reservoir wall at the Ajka Timfoldgyar plant and the village of Kolontar to build a new dyke around the damaged reservoir on October 10, 2010, after a wave of toxic red mud swept through the small village. Hungary raced against time on Sunday to erect a dam around a ruptured reservoir and divert a new wave of toxic sludge that threatens to overwhelm already devastated villages. As hundreds of volunteers joined engineers rushing to erect the 600-metre dam, a top official said it was only a matter of days before the reservoir housing a chemical residue would begin to crumble.
