In case you haven’t seen this already, it’s an extensive report in the NY Times.
Toxic Waters

If that’s not enough to get you outraged, read this:

I read the whole NY Times, excellent article—but, it didn't say anything about the massive O&G pollution that is going on like that here in Texas!!

It seems there are so many who are misinformed or uninformed about oil and gas pollution–even the experts. Sad.

That's the way the O&G companies and the WP's want it here in Tx.
We're ruined.
