Can You Drink Tap Water in Denton?
Yes, Denton's tap water is generally considered safe to drink as Denton has no active health based violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) that we are aware of. Other factors such as lead piping in a home, or low levels of pollutants on immunocompromised individuals, should also be considered, however. To find more recent info we might have, you can check out our boil water notice page or the city's water provider website.
According the EPA’s ECHO database, from April 30, 2019 to June 30, 2022, Denton's water utility, City of Denton, had 0 violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act. For more details on the violations, please see our violation history section below. The last violation for Denton was resolved on Aug. 31, 2018. This assessment is based on the City of Denton water system, other water systems in the city may have different results.
While tap water that meets the EPA health guidelines generally won’t make you sick to your stomach, it can still contain regulated and unregulated contaminants present in trace amounts that could potentially cause health issues over the long-run. These trace contaminants may also impact immunocompromised and vulnerable individuals.
The EPA is reviewing if it’s current regulations around pollutant levels in tap water are strict enough, and the health dangers posed by unregulated pollutants, like PFAS.
Water Quality Report for Denton Tap Water
The most recent publicly available numbers for measured contaminant levels in Denton tap water are in its 2020 Water Quality Report. As you can see, there are levels which the EPA considers to be acceptable, but being below the maximum allowable level doesn’t necessarily mean the water is healthy.
Lead in tap water, for example, is currently allowed at up to 15ppb by the EPA, but it has set the ideal goal for lead at zero. This highlights how meeting EPA standards doesn’t necessarily mean local tap water is healthy.
EPA regulations continue to change as it evaluates the long term impacts of chemicals and updates drinking water acceptable levels. The rules around arsenic, as well as, lead and copper are currently being re-evaluated.
There are also a number of "emerging" contaminants that are not currently. For example, PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), for which the EPA has issued a health advisory. PFAS are called "forever chemicals" since they tend not to break down in the environment or the human body and can accumulate over time.
We recommend looking at the contaminants present in Denton's water quality reports, or getting your home's tap water tested to see if you should be filtering your water.
Denton Tap Water Safe Drinking Water Act Violation History - Prior 10 Years
Below is a ten year history of violations for the water system named City of Denton for Denton in Texas. For more details please see the "What do these Violations Mean?" section below.
From Aug. 1, 2018 to Aug. 31, 2018, Denton had 1 non-health based Safe Drinking Water Act violation with the violation category being Monitoring Violation, more specifically, the violation code was Monitoring, Routine (RTCR) which falls into the Microbials rule code group, and the Total Coliform Rules rule code family for the following contaminant code: Revised Total Coliform Rule.
For the compliance period beginning Oct. 1, 2015, Denton had 1 non-health based Safe Drinking Water Act violation with the violation category being Monitoring and Reporting, more specifically, the violation code was Follow-up Or Routine LCR Tap M/R which falls into the Chemicals rule code group, and the Lead and Copper Rule rule code family for the following contaminant code: Lead and Copper Rule.
Is there Lead in Denton Water?
Based on the EPA’s ECHO Database, 90% of the samples taken from the Denton water system, City of Denton, between sample start date and sample end date, were at or below, 0.0012 mg/L of lead in Denton water. This is 8.0% of the 0.015 mg/L action level. This means 10% of the samples taken from Denton contained more lead.
While Denton water testing may have found 0.0012 mg/L of lead in its water, that does not mean your water source has the same amount. The amount of lead in water in a city can vary greatly from neighborhood to neighborhood, or even building to building. Many buildings, particularly older ones, have lead pipes or service lines which can be a source of contamination. To find out if your home has lead, we recommend getting you water tested.
No amount of lead in water is healthy, only less dangerous. As lead accumulates in our bodies over time, even exposure to relatively small amounts can have negative health effects. For more information, please check out our Lead FAQ page.
Are there PFAS in Denton Tap Water?
Currently, testing tap water for PFAS isn’t mandated on a national level. We do have a list of military bases where there have been suspected or confirmed leaks. There appears to be at least one military base - Dallas NAS - near Denton with suspected leaks.
With many potential sources of PFAS in tap water across the US, the best information we currently have about which cities have PFAS in their water is this ewg map, which you can check to see if Denton has been evaluated for yet.
Our stance is better safe than sorry, and that it makes sense to try to purify the tap water just in case.

Denton Water Quality Report (Consumer Confidence Report)
The EPA mandates that towns and cities consistently monitor and test their tap water. They must report their findings in an annual Consumer Confidence Report. Below is the most recent water quality report from Denton's Water. If you would like to see the original version of the report, please click here.
WATER QUALITY REPORT
The City of Denton’s goal is to achieve a higher level of water quality than that required by state and federal rules and regulations.
To learn more about our water and how it is supplied, please read the following water quality report. This report includes water quality information from 2020. As you can see from the Water Quality Table on the next page, we have continued our commitment to providing you and your
family with safe drinking water by having no violations in 2020.
Denton uses surface water from Lake Lewisville and Lake Ray Roberts for its water supply. Drinking water, both tap and bottled, can come from a variety of sources including rivers, lakes, streams, reservoirs, and springs. As water travels over the land’s surface or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and radioactive material and can be polluted by animal or human activity.
Contaminants that might be expected in untreated water include: microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria; inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals; pesticides and herbicides; organic chemicals from industrial processes or petroleum use; and radioactive materials.
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800)
Water, whether tap or bottled, is regulated for safety. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulates water provided by public water systems while the Food and Drug Administration establishes regulations for bottled water.
Contaminants may be found in drinking water that may cause taste, color, or odor problems. These types of problems are not necessarily causes for health concerns. For more information on taste, odor, or color of drinking water, please call Water Production at (940)
It is more responsible, and cheaper and easier, to keep contaminants out of our lakes than it is to remove them once they get in. Excessive or improper use of pesticides/herbicides, improper disposal of used oil and antifreeze, and littering are just a few activities that can lead to pollution in our drinking water supply. Learn more about protecting our water on the following pages, and please do your part to stop pollution.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality completed an assessment of your source water and results indicate that some of our sources are susceptible to certain contaminants. The sampling requirements for your water system are based on this susceptibility and previous sample data. Any detections of these contaminants may be found in this report. For more information about source water assessments and protection efforts at our system, contact Abbigayle Otteson, Water Regulation Compliance Coordinator, at (940)

Listed on the back of this report are the regulated and unregulated contaminants detected in Denton’s drinking water. All are below allowed levels. Not listed here are hundreds of contaminants for which we tested that were not detected. This report is based upon the most recent data available to Denton Water Utilities. Terms used in the Water Quality Table and in other parts of this report are defined here.
- Action Level (AL) - The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers a treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.
- LRAA - Locational Running Annual Average.
- Level 1 Assessment - A Level 1 assessment is a study of the water system to identify potential problems and determine (if possible) why total coliform bacteria were found.
- Level 2 Assessment - A Level 2 assessment is a very detailed study of the water system to identify potential problems and determine (if possible) why an Escherichia coli (E. coli) maximum contaminant level (MCL) violation has occurred and/or why total coliform bacteria were found on multiple occasions.
- Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.
- Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) - The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
- Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) - The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
- Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) - The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
- NTU - Nepholometric turbidity units. This is the unit used to measure water turbidity.
-
pCi/L - Picocuries per liter is a measure of radioactivity in water. A picocurie is
10-12 curies - the quantity of radioactive material producing 2.22 nuclear transformations per minute. -
ppb - Parts per billion. One part per billion is equal to one packet of artificial sweetener sprinkled into an
Olympic-size swimming pool. - ppm - Parts per million. One part per million is equal to one packet of artificial sweetener sprinkled into 250 gallons of iced tea.
- Treatment Technique (TT) - A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.
- Turbidity - A measure of water’s clarity. How clear the water is can indicate how many particles are in it. The goal is to produce water with turbidity levels as low as possible.

WATER QUALITY REPORT
Produced 04/21 by the City of Denton | ADA/EOE/ADEA | TDD (800)
INFORME DE LA CALIDAD DEL AGUA
La meta de la Ciudad de Denton es lograr un nivel más alto de calidad del agua que es requerido por las reglas y regulaciones estatales y federales.
Para saber más sobre nuestra agua y como es suplida, por favor lea el siguiente informe de calidad de agua. Este informe contiene la información sobre la calidad de agua del año 2020. Como puede observar en el índice de la parte posterior de este, documento nosotros continuamos con nuestro compromiso de proveerle agua potable
a usted y a su familia sin recibir ninguna infracción en 2020.
Denton utiliza el agua proveniente de los lagos Lewisville y Ray Roberts. El agua potable, ya sea de la llave o embotellada es originada de los ríos, lagos, arroyos, presas y nacimientos naturales de agua. Cuando el agua corre sobre la superficie terrestre o a través del subsuelo, disuelve los minerales en los depósitos naturales y los materiales radioactivos y puede ser contaminada por actividades de animales y humanos.
Los contaminantes que pueden estar presentes en el agua sin tratamiento incluyen: los contaminantes microbiológicos, como los virus y las bacterias; los contaminantes inorgánicos como las sales y los metales; pesticidas y herbicidas; los productos químicos orgánicos producidos por la actividad industrial o el uso de los productos petrolíferos; y los contaminantes radioactivos.
El agua potable, incluyendo el agua embotellada, puede contener cantidades pequeñas de contaminantes. La presencia de los contaminantes no indica automáticamente que existan riesgos a la salud. Para mayor información acerca de los contaminantes y posibles efectos a la salud llame a la línea directa Agencia de Protección Ambiental (EPA) Safe Drinking Water Hotline al teléfono (800)
El agua, ya sea de la llave o embotellada, está regulada para seguridad. El EPA establece las normas federales para los sistemas públicos de agua potable. El FDA— Food and Drug
Hay contaminantes que podrían estar presentes en el agua potable y causan problemas de sabor, color, y olor. Estos tipos de problemas no necesariamente indican riesgos a la salud. Para más información acerca del sabor, color y olor del agua, favor de llamar a la planta productora de agua al (940)
Es más responsable, más barato y más fácil, mantener contaminantes fuera de nuestros lagos que removerlos cuando ya están allí. El uso excesivo o impropio de pesticidas/ herbicidas, la disposición impropia del petróleo, anticongelante, y tirar basura inapropiadamente son solo unas de las pocas actividades que pueden llevar a la contaminación de nuestra agua potable. Aprenda más acerca de cómo proteger nuestra agua en las siguientes páginas, y por favor haga su parte para detener la contaminación.
La Comisión de Texas sobre Calidad Ambiental ha completado una evaluación de su fuente de agua y los resultados indican que algunas de nuestras fuentes son susceptibles a ciertos contaminantes. Los requisitos de muestra para su sistema de agua se basan en esta susceptibilidad y datos de las muestras anteriores. Cualquier detección de estos contaminantes se pueden encontrar en este Informe de Calidad del Agua. Para obtener más información acerca de las evaluaciones de las fuentes de agua y los esfuerzos de protección en nuestro sistema, comuníquese con Abbigayle Otteson, (940)
Hay un sin número de opciones disponibles para aprender más acerca de las Utilidades de Agua o para participar en el proceso de decisiones. Para hacer preguntas acerca de este informe o la calidad de nuestra agua potable llame al asistente técnico de la producción de agua, Abbigayle Otteson al (940)
AVISO ESPECIAL IMPORTANTE: Usted puede ser más vulnerable que el resto de la población en general a ciertos contaminantes de origen microbiológico, como Cryptosporidium en el agua potable. Los bebés, algunas personas de edad avanzada, o las personas con un sistema inmune deficiente como los que están bajo tratamiento químico para combatir el cáncer; aquellos que han recibido transplantes de órganos; las personas bajo tratamiento con esteroides;
y las personas con SIDA u otros desórdenes del sistema inmune, pueden estar bajo el riesgo de contraer alguna infección. Si usted tiene alguna de las condiciones mencionadas, necesita seguir o buscar instrucciones de su médico. Existen guías sobre cómo se pueden disminuir los riesgos de infección por Cryptosporidium. La información está a su disposición por llamando a Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800)
INFORMACION SOBRE PLOMO/COBRE: Si presente, niveles elevados de plomo pueden causar problemas de salud, especialmente para mujeres embarazadas y niños pequeños. El Plomo en agua potable es primeramente de materiales y componentes asociados con líneas de servicio y plomería de casa. El abastecedor de agua es responsable por proveer agua potable de alta calidad, pero no puede controlar la variedad de materiales usados en componentes de plomería. Cuando el agua ha reposado por varias horas, puedes minimizar el potencial de exposición de plomo abriendo la llave y dejando correr el agua por 30 segundos hasta 2 minutos antes de usar el agua para tomar o cocinar. Si le preocupa la posibilidad de plomo en su agua, usted podría pedir una examinación del agua. Información sobre plomo en agua potable, métodos de examinación, y pasos con los que puede minimizar exponerse están
disponibles por llamando a Safe Drinking Water Hotline o en el sitio de internet http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.Hotline or at www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
Enlistados en la parte posterior de este informe están los contaminantes regulados y no regulados detectados en el agua potable de Denton. Todos los niveles están por debajo del nivel permitido. Los que no enlistamos aquí son cientos de contaminantes para los cuales hemos probado que no fueron detectados. Este informe se basa en los datos más recientes disponibles para el departamento de Utilidades de Agua de Denton. Los términos utilizados en la tabla de Calidad del Agua y en otras partes de este informe se definen aquí.
- Nivel Máximo del Contaminante (NMC) – Es el nivel más alto permitido en el agua para tomar. El NMC es comparable al NMMC usando la mejor tecnología a nuestra disposición.
- Nivel/Meta Máximo de Contaminante (NMMC) – El nivel de un contaminante en el agua para tomar que está bajo de este nivel. No es conocido que cause riesgos para la salud.
- Nivel de Acción (NA) – Si se excede este nivel puede propiciar e iniciar otros requisitos que el sistema de tratamiento debe seguir.
- NTU – Nepholometric turbidity units. Esta es la unidad para medir la turbiedad del agua.
-
pCi/L – Picocuries por litro de agua es una medida de la radioactividad en el agua. Un picocurie es
10-12 curies y es la cantidad de material radiactivo que produce 2.22 transformaciones nucleares por minuto. - ppb – Partes por billón. Es semejante a lo anterior pero disuelto en una alberca de natación tamaño Olímpico.
- ppm – Partes por millón. Una parte por millón es igual a un paquete de azúcar artificial disuelto en 250 galones de té.
- LRAA – Correr localización de promedio anual.
- Turbiedad – Es la medida de la claridad del agua. La claridad del agua indica la cantidad de partículas. La meta es de producir agua clara con el más bajo nivel de turbiedad posible.
- Nivel de Máximo Residuo de Desinfectante (NMRD) – El nivel más alto de desinfectante permitido en el agua de tomar. Hay evidencia convincente que adición de un desinfectante es necesario para controlar contaminantes microbiológicos.
- Meta del Nivel de Máximo Residuo de Desinfectante (MNMRD) – El nivel de desinfectante que se pude tener en el agua de tomar sin que haya riesgos conocidos o esperados para la salud. MNMRDs no reflejan los beneficios del uso de desinfectantes para controlar los contaminantes microbiológicos.
- Técnicas de Tratamiento (TT) – Un proceso requerido diseñado para reducir el nivel de contaminantes en el agua de tomar.
- Evaluación Nivel 1 - Una evaluación de nivel 1 es un estudio del sistema de agua para identificar problemas potenciales y determinar (si es posible) por qué se encontraron bacterias coliformes totales.

Denton Tap water
Recently, some residents in Denton decided to take matters into their own hands and do something about their water quality. Denton is a large city in Texas with a population of over thirteen thousand people. To make matters worse, they are also required by the state to test their tap water regularly to determine if it contains any harmful chemicals. They also have an abundance of chemicals coming into the landfill waste that they have to deal with. All of this brings me to my theory about why Denton tap water has such poor quality.
If you live in an area with lots of pollution going on, you will find that your water will have a lot of contaminants in it. There are two primary ways that the contaminants get into your tap water. They can come from either a storm drain or they can come from your local water plant. These two places have to deal with sewage, fertilizer, detergents, etc., constantly. They are not cleaned out regularly. As a result, the water from your tap goes through rain gutters, then into the drainage system. It goes to your main water line, giving it to the municipal water plant where it gets put into drinking water and then eventually to your household’s water heater.
When you consider that these two extensive water plants process all of your city’s drinking water, you begin to see how important it is to clean up your water. It is well worth your effort to go to your city and clean your water. It will cost you a lot less in the long run. What do you pay each year for your bottled water? It is ridiculous!
Denton Drinking Water
I’m sure you’ve probably heard a lot of talk about Denton drinking water lately. There’s been an investigation by the CBS 6 ” Evening News” where they learned that the Denton water treatment center had detected dangerous levels of chemicals in their tap water. One of the things that we must do as a society is to protect our children from dangerous chemicals in their water. We all know that. So why, you ask, did the news report even mention that these dangerous chemicals were found in the Denton drinking water?
The reason is simple; they don’t want you to know about it. In a nutshell, Denton is a town of fewer than ten thousand people spread out over four hundred square miles of land. Most people have never even heard of the water treatment center there. Therefore, they don’t care what the chemicals are doing to their bodies. That’s unfortunate since the Denton water treatment center is one of the most effective in the United States. They test their water every day for chemicals and other contaminants and perform all of the necessary procedures to ensure that your Denton water is pure and clean.
But suppose you have any hope of stopping this chemical invasion into your Denton water supply. In that case, you’re going to have to take a drastic measure. You’re going to have to stop drinking tap water altogether and start purchasing and drinking only safely direct from the Denton water purification plant. I’m not talking about some silly one-stage home filtration system you find in your local super-center. No, I’m talking about a multi-stage water filtration system that will filter not only your water but your kitchen and bathroom and even your bathing water so that you’re left with clean, healthy water in the morning when you wake up.

Denton Water Utility
For the Denton Water Utility, drought is a critical issue. Drought is defined as when the precipitation does not meet the minimum required by law in a given calendar year. When this happens, the Denton water utility has to curtail or suspend operations until it returns to an average level. If you live in the area and your water bill is constantly high, you are very direct in violating the law. If you would like to help the Denton water utility meet its goal of decreasing the amount of water used, then there are some things that you can do.
The Denton water utility has a great program to help water customers save on their water bills. Every customer who saves five dollars during the summer and winter will get a discount on their water bill the following year. However, this program depends on the conservation efforts of the residents in the town of Denton. Live in the area and see that things are getting severe enough for you to benefit from the program. You should take a look at what the Denton water utility has to offer.
If you like what you see and you would like to sign up for the program, then you should head to the Denton water utility offices. Here, you will find everything that you need to get started with your plan to conserve. While it might be a good idea to involve your friends and family in your plan to conserve water, you will still want to do your part. If your water consumption is high, then you need to act now. If you do nothing, then the Denton region could become a lot worse off than it already is.
Water in Denton
Last week, I talked to a lady in Denton who was concerned that water conservation would mean bad economic development for the city of Denton. Specifically, she was concerned about how low the unemployment rate was in her area. Indeed, if more people are unemployed, it will take a more significant toll on the economies of Denton county and, in turn, the counties surrounding it. Still, when you look at the bigger picture, it appears that the current economic situation does not mean that more people will lose their jobs in Denton. The fact is that new businesses have started to boom in the county. This growth will continue as long as there are people, whether they are homeowners or not, that want to move to this part of the state.
This economic boost has resulted in more retail sales, new home construction, and more new business establishments in Denton. More people are paying attention to Denton and all it has to offer instead of looking elsewhere. If you own a business, you should consider starting a store in Denton. You can sell anything from locally produced goods to imported goods from out of the state, but what you should know is that most cities in Texas have strict regulations on what types of goods you can sell. The rules change each year, sometimes as often as every week.
Regardless, no matter what your specialty is, there are various products available in the county. Just about everything you could need is available. For example, a few years back, before the recession began, it was easy to find plumbing services. You would simply contact several companies, check out the prices, make your purchase, and never look back. Still, after the recession, many people lost their jobs and homes and became re-employed. As a result, the plumbing industry began to dry up.
Denton Surface Water
Denton surface water is a reservoir located in the northern portion of the state of North Carolina. This city is a small coastal community that is home to about eleven thousand residents. The City of Denton was established in the eighteenth century and has seen an increase in commerce ever since its beginning. Denton is also home to the University of North Carolina, one of the leading public colleges in the country.
Denton’s lake is fed by Denton Lake, a natural lake located on the crest of Cataloochee Mountain. A Denton water diversion plant has been proposed for the lake, but it is not currently considered. There are many reasons why Denton water is seen as low cost and an excellent alternative to Lake Okeel in terms of water management. Denton Lake is the second-lowest cost natural water source behind Lake Sinclair in eastern North Carolina.
Denton Lake is fed by a network of rivers, springs, streams, and natural lakes that provide the water needed to support more than twelve thousand people. This makes Denton a great place to live, especially for those who like to spend time outdoors and enjoy nature. The lake is managed by the Norgen Hanger Greenwater Management Company, which also happens to own most of the land surrounding the Denton Reservoir. The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers manages the Denton reservoirs. No matter how you look at the situation, one thing is clear: North Carolina does rely on natural sources of drinking water, especially in times of drought.
Denton Water Contaminants
Denton water is a great community that is located in the Washington DC suburbs. It is a beautiful place with a lot of nature, including waterfalls, lakes, and fountains. Unfortunately, while being a beautiful place, it also has a water contamination problem that needs to be fixed. Recently, the Denton water department bought back some of their treated stormwater and treated it to make it safe again for people to use.
The treatment facility uses ultraviolet light to kill any remaining bacteria and pollutants. After the UV kills all the contaminants, they are then removed from the water. The Denton water department uses ultraviolet light to kill the bacteria and other pollutants in the stormwater. After it is cleaned and treated, the left water is then sent to a filtration system that will strip out any remaining contaminants that are not killed by the ultraviolet light.
After this process is complete, the water goes back to Denton Water, making sure it is clean and safe for use by the residents. However, the residents are also looking for ways to improve the Denton water treatment because they know that Denton water is not perfect. They are also concerned that the stormwater they have to deal with every day contains contaminants that could hurt the community in many ways. Because of this concern, the Denton water department has developed a plan to improve its current processes.
Denton Water Treatment
The long-standing dispute between the residents of Denton and the Denton water treatment plant has recently come to a head, with the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) having decided to force the closing down of the Denton water treatment plant. However, this decision was not made overnight, and it was made after extensive talks between both the residents’ groups and the EPA itself. It is, therefore, interesting to see what the EPA has managed to get themselves into this for. The reason they have done this is simple. Since they are directly liable for the health conditions suffered by all residents of Denton, they feel obligated to close down the water treatment plant in Denton.
Many different parties are directly liable for the health conditions that have been occurring in Denton for the last thirty years or so, including the Denton water treatment plant, the Denton water treatment corporation, the Denton water supply operators, Denton pump manufacturers, the Denton oil distributors, the Denton oil pipelines companies, as well as all of the thousands of individuals who have been placing their hands on toxic chemicals. For these companies, there is no way out but to close down the Denton water treatment plant. However, despite this, the residents of Denton are left without a safe drinking water source. They are left with the only option of using whatever contaminated water they can find along the way. They will have to carry dangerous chemicals with them wherever they go.
The EPA claims that they are merely protecting the public’s safety by forcing the closing down of the Denton water treatment plant. This means that the town of Denton is at risk of receiving more diseases than ever before if nothing is done to remedy the situation. While it is true that more people will die of drinking contaminated water in Denton, it is also true that a large number of those deaths could have been prevented had the Denton water plant never existed. The people of Denton need to stand up to this irresponsible behavior on the part of the EPA and demand that the closures of the Denton water plants be stopped immediately so that the people of Denton are not subjected to the depraved acts of the EPA and the attorneys for the EPA.
