Thank you to Mrs. Burns, Rancho Los Malulos, for this informative video. I try to stress the dangers of breathing steam from water with drilling contaminates.
No more hot showers, wash dishes and clothes in cold water only.

Be it known that many, many toxins are soluable in water vapor. Also, know that the TCEQ does NOT concern itself with the emissions of water vapor to the air–whether or not it contains dissolved toxins!!

Okay, I'll bite – other than appeasing their masters, Industry, what does the TCEQ concern itself with? It sure as hell isn't the taxpayers who fully fund their budget, staff and equipment every year, that's for sure.
TCEQ- Totally Concocted Environmental Quality.
There are so many things the TCEQ does not test for, but knows it should, and so many things they pretend to test for, then make excuses as to why the test results came out the way they did. Bunch of boobs.
When Mayor Tillman requested the TCEQ test for Formaldehyde, the TCEQ jumped on it. Said they'd be right out- and then 'realized' they have neither the qualified staff or proper equipment to test for formaldehyde. So the TCEQ did the next best thing- or what they believe is the next best thing- drove that truck around DISH testing the air, but not for methane or formaldehyde, or much of any of the other usual suspects we've come to know.
Ed Non-Scientist Ireland probably advised them it was unnecessary and the puppets at the TCEQ just said "Okay" and that was the end of that.

To Tim above. So you know the TCEQ. They are worthless as far as protecting the ordinary citizen who lives on the land! Also, they do not concern themselves with methane monitoring. If there is a pipeline leak, forget about calling the WCEQ. They do not even have meters to monitor for methane (CH4). Our "Buddies"!
