It's not just a water company problem. Laws have to be enacted to close some of these loopholes so that companies can't get away with this.

Obviously I'm extremely upset that they could violate the laws, given the fact that this is an extremely sensitive issue in Toms River.

I think you're naive if you think the companies are going to do testing that is going to expose them to liability. You have such a huge time span between the time you are going to be testing.

We accommodated (ground water) users at considerable expense to our customers. We believe the company made a significant contribution to the economic viability of agriculture in the state of Idaho.

He's not interested in having this company come if it is (working) in the water. The federal government is the one who benefits from this. If Bay Bridge wants to work with the federal government to locate a dry-dock in Oregon, then let's talk.

We expect the new water company to be able to finance its own ongoing activities rather than depend on Enron's financial resources.
