Summary
Resident Steven Van Horn told the council the annual water quality report doesn't answer whether the aquifer is actually sustainable — the injection system's 350 million gallons since 2017 is about one year's worth of its intended annual target. He also criticized imagery in the report that he says downplays health warnings for vulnerable residents.
