Margie,

Can you share more information about your situation?

Margie, it appears you tossed a bomb and then went underground without giving us the benefit of further explanation.

I wonder if Margie is even in San Augustine County. I've been on this board for at least 2 years (maybe longer) and haven't seen anyone post about such. Just saying...

I haven't heard anything yet in that area. However, there are some fairly shallow rig supply wells (e.g. 100 ft) so I suspect there are shallow private wells. Margie, it would be nice to know your location, the depth of the well, and the results from any analysis of the water.

Perhaps "Margie" is code name for " Mayhem" as in the insurance television commercials...

Water wells off F M 711 are going dry. One in particular is very toxic. The homeowner has left and is now unable to use the water at all. The oil co is well aware of the problem. The results of the tests were all marked red with the advice do not use. They are not my wells but I do care about clean water and don;t expect these to be shallow wells from the size of the homes.

You probably didn't see anything about the illegal dumping of chemicals in Lake Rayburn either. Thanks officers!
