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.
