On Thursday night, the state is getting feedback on a plan to dump hundreds of thousands of treated sewage water into a Comal County creek in east Bulverde.
There’s concern that if the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality green lights it, sewage water could enter the Edwards Aquifer and the water we drink.“I was terrified that we would have an impact on the horses,” Bell Altman said.
“We worked hard on developing this land with the horses, and every penny we make goes to it,” Bell Altman said. “We’re right over the Edwards Aquifer, a recharge zone. And so this is a super sensitive area,” Fought said. “I’m not against this development. What I am against is dumping treated wastewater into a creek that affects families immediately downstream of it and against negatively impacting the Edwards Aquifer recharge zone.”
