Homes and school built on former drilling waste site
Original: From Justin Nobel, in collaboration with Truthdig: We reported on homes and a school built atop a former drilling waste
Journalist Justin Nobel, working with Truthdig, reports that homes and a school in Texas were built on top of a former drilling waste site. Texas authorities maintain the properties are safe, but residents and owners are skeptical and concerned about possible health risks. It remains unclear whether the owners have a legal case against the developers who built on the land.
Why now: New reporting on residents living on contaminated land raises health and safety concerns.
