HUNGARY-ENVIRONMENT-POLLUTION
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY ESZTER BALAZS == This photo taken on April 13, 2011 shows some newly built houses in Kolontar village after a million cubic metres of red sludge flooded the area last October. Where houses once stood, there is now nothing but rubble: the buildings had to be demolished after they were made inhabitable by a noxious red sludge that swamped the village last October. Devecser was at the epicentre of Hungary's worst-ever chemical accident, when the retaining walls of a reservoir at a nearby alumina plant burst on October 4, sending 1.1 million cubic metres (38.8 million cubic feet) of poisonous, stinking red-coloured mud across an area of 40 square kilometres (15 square miles).
