WASHINGTON, Jan. 15 (UPI) -- Edward Snowden, who leaked information on the huge U.S. surveillance programs, will join the Freedom of the Press Foundation board, the organization said.

"I am proud and honored to welcome Edward Snowden to Freedom of the Press Foundation's board of directors. He is the quintessential American whistle-blower, and a personal hero of mine," said foundation co-founder Daniel Ellsberg, who leaked the Pentagon Papers on the U.S. government's decision-making relative to the Vietnam War.

"Leaks are the lifeblood of the republic and, for the first time, the American public has been given the chance to debate democratically the NSA's [National Security Agency] mass surveillance programs," Ellsberg said in a release Tuesday. "Accountability journalism can't be done without the courageous acts exemplified by Snowden, and we need more like him."

The Freedom of the Press Foundation was founded in 2012 to support public-interest journalism dedicated to transparency and accountability.

Snowden, living in Russia after he was granted temporary asylum in August, said it was "tremendously humbling to be called to serve the cause of our free press, and it is the honor of a lifetime to do so alongside extraordinary Americans like Daniel Ellsberg on FPF's board of directors."

"The unconstitutional gathering of the communications records of everyone in America threatens our most basic rights, and the public should have a say in whether or not that continues," Snowden said. "Thanks to the work of our free press, today we do, and if the NSA won't answer to Congress, they'll have to answer to the newspapers, and ultimately, the people."

Snowden will officially join the board of directors in February 2014.

Par Industrial Park in Nitro is the home of Poca Blending, a subsidiary of Freedom Industries. Under orders from the state Department of Environmental Protection, Freedom used tanker trucks to transport all the remaining chemicals from their facility on the Elk River to Poca Blending, a drive of about 17 miles.

NITRO, W.Va. -- It smells like licorice in the Par Industrial Park in Nitro.

Par Industrial Park is the home of Poca Blending, a subsidiary of Freedom Industries. Under orders from the state Department of Environmental Protection, Freedom used tanker trucks to transport all the remaining chemicals from their facility on the Elk River to Poca Blending, a drive of about 17 miles.

Every one of those trucks went within about 100 feet of the Nitro Public Library. The library, which has been closed since the leak was discovered last week, sits about a quarter mile down the road from Poca Blending.

Lynn Godby, the library manager, was at work on Wednesday morning, beginning the process of flushing the building's pipes so they could reopen today.

She had no idea that the tanker trucks that had driven by contained 4-methylcyclohexanemethanol from Freedom Industries, or that the chemical was being stored so close by.

"It makes me a little uneasy," Godby said Wednesday. "You don't like to think they're just right down the road."

On Tuesday state regulators cited Freedom Industries for a broad variety of violations after an inspection of the Poca Blending site. The state Department of Environmental Protection issued five notices of violation, or NOVs, alleging improper storage of materials that could contaminate groundwater, failure to follow a DEP-issued stormwater permit, failure to provide required pollution discharge monitoring reports.

Interestingly, the DEP also cited Freedom's Nitro operation for not having the appropriate "secondary containment" for chemical spills -- a problem that regulators have said was a major cause of last Thursday's spill of "Crude MCHM" into the Elk River.

"Secondary containment within the facility was deteriorated or non-existent," the DEP said in an inspection report. "The plan indicates that the building itself acts a secondary containment, but holes exist at floor level in the building's walls.
