Chris Buttram had no experience with dike inspection when he arrived at the Kingston Fossil Plant in October 2008.
“I had heard of them, but I’d never seen one,” he said.
Despite that inexperience, TVA charged him with writing a key report about the inspection.
Attorney Jeff Friedman said it was that kind of conduct on the part of TVA that caused the dike to fail two months later.
“The disaster was a tragedy the likes of which this state and country had never seen,” Friedman said.
