Knowing that Santa Fe must be vigilant in fending off water scarcity, is the commission for or against using treated fracking wastewater, often referred to as "produced water", as drinking water? As a chemical engineer who used to work for a petrochemical giant, I am staunchly against it. It is a strategy by the petrochemical industry to shift its waste onto municipalities with little regard for residents. As long as they can make it look good on paper, the rest is just lip service. In my experience as an insider, the petrochemical industry--including petrochemical companies that position themselves as caring for the environment--is focused on one thing, and one thing alone: profits. Do not sell your constituents out.
