Mount Rainier to hold ribbon-cutting for toilet

ASHFORD, Wash. - Mount Rainier National Park is holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony Monday to activate a new bio toilet at Cougar Rock Campground.

The $70,000 toilet was donated by Groundwork Mishima, a group that promotes volunteerism at Mount Fuji, which has a "sister mountain" relationship with the park. The toilet was installed with the help of students from the Japanese Volunteers-in-Parks Association.

The toilet uses cedar chips and natural composting to operate with little water or odor.

Enzo couldn't wait had to relieve himself.

The problem is he was unloading bio-hazardous waste. There was a call put in to the EPA and they had to send their waste disposal team in for a clean up.
Nasty business.
