    This is interesting. I've been to the exact phosphate plant this is shot in. Place is so destroyed now, and based on what you can see, you can tell that working coniditions were horrible in this place. The actual mine area is usually flooded and under water

    Is this one of the two Nitrate plans built in Muscle Shoals as part of the Muscle Shoals Project authorized under the National Defense Act of 1916 and later rolled into the TVA?
