The Border's Flint, Michigan?
Paloma Rodriguez and Frank Hernandez were not shocked to hear about excessive levels of arsenic that were found in the water supply of their community. Operators of the Carousel Convenience Store on the edge of Sunland Park, New Mexico, Rodriguez and Hernandez had seen notices before from the local water utility district informing customers of the presence of arsenic in their water. In fact, the couple said they had always avoided drinking water from their taps.
"I don't drink the water. I opened it up one time and it was yellow," Rodriguez said. "We've been here 21 years and never drink from the faucet..," Hernandez added. The shopkeepers, however, insisted that they had not seen the latest notice from the Camino Real Regional Utility Authority (CRRUA) reporting the breakdown of the water utility's two arsenic treatment plants.
