Kilbuck / Wal-Mart Landslide 1 Year Later

Written by Randy Post
Sunday, 23 September 2007
It has been over 1 year since an excavation for a new Wal-Mart store in Kilbuck Township, PA caused a massive landslide that closed Route 65 for two weeks, and temporarily closed a rail line as well. Strong storms last month apparently caused an increase in the rate of movement of the now instrumented slide. The state DEQ feels the movement is deep-seated, but Wal-Mart disagrees. See our previous coverage or go to the video from the local CBS affiliate or news and photos from the local ABC affiliate. technorati tags: landslide Kilbuck Wal-Mart !
