Re: Update to waste oil

Just last year they had had a problem with wells in my county. The home owners were complaining of the water taste and they started
doing water testing. This is in a big subdivision
that have homes costing $1,000,00.00 and when the test results came back it was an additive in gasoline. I forget the name they only used letters I think it MSTB not sure if that's the right spelling. An Exon station in the area was the culprit and Exon closed the station.

I haven't seen much about this lately and I'm sure a lawsuit isn't far away since most of those homeowners are lawyers and doctors. Exon is furnishing bottled water to all homes.

My wife told me once about what her granddad said about 65 years ago. He said if we didn't take care of the earth we may be drinking our own urine some day. Hal

However, MTBE does not float on top of the water such as Benzene. This is why ethonol is increasing in demand because it has replaced MTBE as an additive. This is being enforced in places like California where they have recently mandated the ethonol additive (or outlawed MTBE as an additve).
