Do a history of the DEQ in Or. That will open many eyes.
I’m curious what specific contaminants he is referring to.
It’s 8parts per million in canby area nitrates
Great segment.
That's good information. Thanks
I see this backfiring in the well owners disfavor. This government doesn't want anyone self sufficient.

...and it just did.
All water should be filtered when it comes from the tsp, reason they invented water bottles with filters.
Good information
Huntington, Oregon Chevron water does like aquifers.
OMG, we need the Gov to provide some really strong leadership on this issue! Please!!!

Confused. This entire news coverage showed how government at all levels made things worse, but you want government to fix it? Why would they cut off their wealth generation for the benefit of people who will never hold them accountable? That is obviously illogical.
I live in eastern Oregon I know that my well is contaminated and still drink it. But it is better then drinking the river water I used to drink when living in the city.
Oregon DEQ is a joke.
God said drink water only from thine own well.
He says ccontaminates what contaminates? Give us more money so we can tell you how to live.
