Alabama utility operations get proactive in hopes of preventing a coal ash spill, similar to the one in Roane County, Tennessee.

Utilities operate coal ash retention ponds at nine locations in Alabama, and all have passed inspection since the TVA retention pond in Roane County, Tennessee spilled more than a billion gallons of gray ash.

TVA has ponds at its two coal-fired plants in north Alabama.

Spokespersons for TVA and two other utility companies in Alabama report the nine ponds were inspected by utility employees.
