This is a good thing. In fifty years dallas should be able to figure out how to reduce water consumption, and not flood our east texas wildlife habitat.

A BIG victory for the people of East Texas! The large cities need to begin regulating their industrial and population growth to fit their LOCAL water supply. Why force landowners far removed from Dallas to sacrifice when their loss will far outweigh any benefits? New or relocating industries need to locate in areas where existing resources can support their needs. Our city of Lufkin is a perfect example! This is prime territory for filling these needs. When the Lufkin paper mill shut down operations, it left a huge supply of water that can fill the needs of many new industries and population growth. Great place to live and raise children too. Check us out!

As repugnant as it may be, large metropolitan areas are going to have to clean up their effluent to a point that the water through processing is potable. It’s expensive, at least in the short term, but in the long run I think it will be to the advantage of the Dallas Metroplex area to do that. And, it won’t require damaging and possibly debilitating an area like the Neches River National Wildlife Refuge.

Lufkin,

    This is only the beginning of our problems in the future.  Our schools, land and water is in need with immigration out of control.  We will eventually loose our schools, land and water.  We MUST close our borders and stop illegals.  Save our country.
