The Bridge reports that Seward Neighborhood residents are not fans of the stinky PCP (Pentachlorophenol) treated wooden power poles installed by Xcel Energy. PCP is a toxin and the manufacturing process creates additional toxic chemical byproducts. However, poles treated with the pesticide last 4X longer. Should people be putting themselves, their kids, and their neighbors ahead of poles?
