Warrington, Pa Bucks County right by the Willow Grove Naval Base Our water bill has been astronomical as well as sewer bill. If they were for the people they would make things change as fast as they approve emergency bills that fit their agenda. George Carlin said it best years ago and it still holds true today.... m.youtube.com/watch?v=AtgfzzwoyK4

This was a well written and informative article. I found it fascinating and eye opening. There are so many individuals around the United States (in the world actually) dealing with water quality and availability. After reading the article I found myself with even more questions and shaking my head. Lobbyist needs to be eliminated, tougher environmental laws and enforcement, stricter water quality regulations and business owners need to be held accountable.

The world took a wrong turn babe. We say we want to stop corruption, but then when someone like Julian Assange actually does, we don’t like that either & let them die on remand. There is no fight after we missed the basics (like remand is prison for no crime), there’s merely those who can afford lawyers & those that conform until they are too poor to accept the corruption as well. And even water filters are messing people up now. Who are we fighting at this point?

I pay $200 a month just to be poisoned by Alcoa/Badin lake contamination. I struggle to pay such a high water bill monthly with very little use! We can’t drink it or cook with it. Limit weekly loads of laundry, short showers/baths and it never goes down. Always $200+!!

Claims of water shortages, then giving building permits freely.

Something that everyone needs to ask themselves: Where will I get clean drinking water when it’s not affordable or available by just turning on the tap? Erin is right. This is a life or death problem. If we have clean water to drink, we’ll live. If not, we won’t live. How badly do you want clean water?

No campaigns until six months before the election!! No outside money ! 50,000 signatures to run for local office!! Two to six year plan !! Out of office out of money!!

We are pay .02 a gal in North Riverside, IL. Also part of that is a 15.00 a monthly maintenance fee on residential properties. It is more for commercial properties. Thanks to the current Mayor.

I think it’s their way of making us believe we’re paying more because they’re doing more to fix the issue

My water company in Iowa told us it’s going up 7% every year to help pay for a new water treatment osmosis plant ... it’s going on 5 or 6 years and they haven’t even bought the land yet. Utilities have just become another way to scam Americans out of their money..

As long as their government takes up arms in their protection you fight only swords with words

Can you help us out Kingsbury NY Open Forum ?? We are fighting Governor Cuomo now, as our family lost Our Mom at our area Fort Hudson Nursing Home in Fort Edward, New York AND trying to deal with THIS.

Because developers are tapping into water companies slush fund stash to build real shoddy homes and charging triple the cost to consumers. They are tapping into everything that they can get their hands on to clear trees destroy the wetlands and most of all take away from school education. Real estate managers are resigning their positions and putting themselves on the local school boards so they can use their license real estate to hash into the super funds the schools are getting from grants and loans. The continuation of destroying our natural resources is so top level that it is thoroughly disgusting. Military Housing is suffering immensely. I am working hard to prevent this kind of mess. This includes support to overturn the Feris act. So that military families can legally sue the government for damages and deaths resulted in contamination of facilities and failure to diagnose failed diagnose and improper care.

The water in Colorado City, Colorado, Pueblo County is poisoning the residents. Something needs to be done. They city is covering it up and still charging for water that is making people sick

And we still allow foreign corps like Nestlé to buy US water rights.

Trump ruined the EPA. We can look forward to polluted water, air and soil until Biden recedes those changes by Trump.

Nah, they have the same priorities they've always had. Unfortunately those priorities have nothing to do with any human beings.

Hi Erin, Your posts disappeared from my news feed for a good 6 months. Good to see that they are back. Tasmania.

See that recoil sphere, that is how our moon formed. From an impact & still moving away at an inch a yr. Sorry off topic, Just thought you'd might like to know.

We have Nestle to thank as well. Water now a traded commodity on the futures market. Oh and by the way, the Swiss smuggled Nazis out of postwar Germany. Another favor to the world. Mengele ended up in Chile working with Pinochet.

You should run the environmental department.

In Flint where you still can’t drink the water, they pay an outrageous amount. You could make a car payment for what they pay. 😳💧

Does a politician have the motivation, innovation, sweat equity or ingenuity to create clean, affordable water for the public? How can they, while promising 100’s of other things they can fix? Let the market create clean water, people will buy and support it. There are answers, finding them trough a politician is many times a convoluted dead end.

Because we are letting this happen.

We can send ships to Mars but can’t get clean water. When will someone invent a home system that will clean rainwater?

SOS/HELP Madison County Mississippi is number one for BREAST and PRÓSTATE cancer death in the US, and has been since 1980. Madison County Mississippi is the SECOND BIGGEST CANCER CLUSTER in the US. There are brain tumors, autoimmune illnesses, lung disease, cats dogs and horses dying with tumors here. There’s no telling what the death toll really is! Madison Mississippi is the riches town in Mississippi. Our health is being sacrificed for profit...🙏🏼💗🙏🏽 Madison County Mississippi is Landfill capital of Mississippi! It’s all environmental over 60 years of landfills and chemical factories. Madison county has six types of landfills. This county has Landfills for things the landfill don’t take. Three other states are shipping their landfill trash into Madison County. Monsanto that makes round up along with other chemical factories. Toxic chemical EDC’s stimulate the Endocrine system causing a wide range of illnesses including Breast and Prostate cancer. 🙏🏼🎚🙏🏽 99% of the people of this county don’t have a clue they’re living in a cancer cluster because MISSISSIPPI OWNS THE MEDIA! I believe I became sick because of my water supply💦💦💦 “SHARE” www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/usa/mississippi-cancer

Hopefully everyone brings rain. The forecast doesn't look favorable

I wish you ran the EPA!

Erin thank you for being such a strong advocate for your clean water rights...I so appreciate all your work..

A lot of what’s going into the water is from the Chemtrails. They spray then it hits the ground and goes into the soil and it rains or snows and goes into the drinking water. It effects the whole eco system.

If you go and read Choramine Facts, it will shock you they have nerve that this is safe to clean water! They just bypass dangers that not only can cause leaching of lead from lead pipes, but lead poisoning can cause mental health issues! No wonder the USA leads in sickest people and even deaths in our young people! Guess what? If they try to remove colors mine, Will remain in tap water for extended period if time and requires using another chemical or carbon treatment of water to effectively remove it! This is also toxic and causes pollution to lakes & streams which is toxic to fish and invertebrates!

What they do to drinking water coming from waste water treatment plants isn't enough.

And there are natural alternatives Danolyte is one that was brought to me for funding and I’ll never forget it! It’s also the first thing I thought of when covid hit! Thay and then ViroSafe for facilities that hand down time. Both totally kill covid in anything and everything!

People in that area need to take action. Knowing the value of water do not let this problem continue. If there is a will there is a way. Those humans who are doing harm must be made accountable.

I smelled this in Austin when I filled my tub with water. It lasted for 3 days before it dissipated. But I realized the smell had been there for about a month. I use fragrance free, low-toxin clothes detergent, and it started smelling like a heavy chemical detergent had contaminated my wash. Now I realize it's the water.

The water sinks here in Humble Texas all the time. It has been the same for the 2 years I've lived here. I buy bottled water because I don't want to drink bleach.

We can no longer physically tolerate drinking the water in the San Jacinto River Authority district (Montgomery County). Please look into this region.

"The smoldering ruins of WTC is like a breath of fresh air. What you smell is disinfectant in the water. What you die-of after getting the vaccine, is either Covid, or god knows what." EPA information sharing with CDC.

Harris County Texas water has been unsafe for many years.. I believe my Ewing Sarcoma bone cancer was caused drinking Houston's Petrochemical drinking water. Please Research your neighborhood environmental hazardous and water like places like Homefacts. com EPASUPERFUND. ORG For our children and grandchildren sake we must make safe water 💧 America's priority. Thank you so much Erin 🌼

I'm seeing the white flaky stuff also. Never had it before. This is just from boiling the water. Nothing in it. I'm in Texas also.

When boiling water for spaghetti, there was a film in the water and then there was flaky white stuff stuck on the edges at water line. I'm in Texas and this is AFTER they say our water doesnt need boiling anymore. WHAT IS THAT?!

Texas, in their independence quest is being ripped off by the private ownership of public utilities and much if it is substandard! They are not alone! Sad!

It's not just water they're having issues with Erin. The people of Texas are also getting hit with astronomical electric bills. These bills are ridiculous $12,000, $30,000, and higher! That's not right!

Im having issues in ohio only have of my towns water comes out looking fine on my side of town the water is coming out cloudy gray I have no clue what that means but I refuse to drink it and will only cook with it if in boiling the water first

I live in Houston and the water ALWAYS smells and tastes like bleach!

Do you know have info on denver water? It seems to me that they too are running into quality, lead arsenic etc, issues in their water

Id like to have things checked out in my town 3 people in my court have passed away from cancer

Yes Erin you should be in charge of our water!

I currently live in a small town in Missouri and the drinking water here smells like bleach. You can taste it too. The weird thing is that it will leave a slightly dirty silt on a dish strainer.

Yep I had turquoise water in my bathtub that smelled like a Clorox bottle

That’s so bad. Hugo, Oklahoma actually sent out letters to customers telling them that trichloromethane wasn’t dangerous

Houston uses surface water for the most part. Small sections such as Kingwood use groundwater. The two systems are not combined.
