Since their local government doesn't have the balls, Denton residents and a local hospital have ponied up the money needed to conduct and air and water quality study in the Rayzor Ranch area of town. The area has been permitted for gas drilling, which was opposed by local residents due to noise factors, location, and pollution. The city council approved the permit, with some councilmembers citing that the city would be sued if they did not.
We're pretty sure their study will confirm what we already know. The air quality in Denton County is already at dangerous levels due to already existing gas drilling operations. But we are glad citizens are taking action since their government is failing to protect them.
