Texas Water Supply Endangered by Drilling Waste

June 19, 2009 By TXsharon

Saint Jo is one of the most beautiful areas of North Texas. Big Oil wants to dump drilling waste on top of the Saint Jo water supply.

Kudos to Saint Jo mayor, Tom Weger, for fighting to protect the interest of citizens!

‘”When they’re finished, they get to go away,” he said. “We don’t get to go away”

    Your drinking water will be ruined from this kind of activity. It's just a matter of time.

    This comes down to ethics on any company. Do the right thing…because it's the right thing to do. Fully contain the waste water and move forward — or move out. Any contamination is not acceptable and since you cannot guarantee the work — demobilize the work.

    Yes! Do the right thing!

    It's not just about ethics. Some companies are highly ethical and accidents still happen. We can't afford to take that risk with our drinking water.
