The waste ponds and dead are a toxic mess poisoning us all. The day of the small family farm are long gone.

Yes and no. Purdue has deliberately set up an arrangement whereby the Hen Hotel owners are independent contractors/suppliers such that Purdue can escape liability for the mess they create.

Fortunately our water comes from 300 feet down below our front lawn. It is acid but we have a neutralizer that takes care of that. We do not use fertilizers so there are no phosphates from us polluting the Chesapeake. ANd no phosphates from the laundry as they don't get past the septic system.

It is heartening to note that there are folks out there who are still trying to keep drinking water clean.

Do not assume your drinking water meets acceptable standards.
