Montague County Property Owners Association August Newsletter
The August issue of the Montague County Property Owners Association is out. It contains more information on Montague County's inclusion in a Priority Groundwater Management Area. It also quotes a professional hydrologist stating that construction of FENCO's proposed stationary treatment facility could contaminate ground and surface water supplies for hundreds of thousands of people.
