I live in North Texas and water is a concern, especially in the unincorporated counties. I saw on the news, just last week, a TV news segment on the water problems, specifically in a county outside of Fort Worth. The subject was about the drilling boom and it use of water and the effects on the community.

We did have a little rain this week and are expecting more early next week. Hopefully, this hurricane will give us some relief.

Not to get off my point, but on Fox New last night the Meteorologist said, that where this storm is originating from, off the coast of Venezuela, has historically produced severe hurricanes and he is very concerned.

Back to my point regarding water and AMEP, are the 200 or so PRI wells in South Texas, where water is not as much of a problem?

Thanks

Contractor, AMEP currently gets it's water from Possum Kingdom Lake, the largest lake in the area, and larger than lake Palo Pinto in your informative article.

I had a long conversation with an employee of the water trucking company furnishing water for AMEP; and he said they had no problem continuing to get water from that lake at a reasonable cost. He said the lake caretakers like the money that they are getting in water revenues, as it allows them to do lake and grounds improvements that otherwise would be hard to do without this source of income.

Daily evaporation exceeds what they pull out by a very significant amount.

GLTY contractor,
