Speaking with Councilman Linford
From Loretta Moshier: I just talked to Councilman Jim Linford. He stated that The city has several lawsuits that will be filed if the new sewer plan falls through. Also the farms around the current lagoons have stated that they will cancel their contracts at the end of the term and no longer wish to use type II water on their crops. Where will this water go then?
Rowley Farms is deeply concerned about the near misses in the past of type II water getting into their orchards and do NOT want future lagoon expansion. The lawsuit if their prize crops were contaminated with lagoon spilliage would be enormous. Think ahead, people! What do you see in Santaquin's future?
JFYI Type II water is permitted by the USDA but companies who buy crops, like Walmart and other large desirable accounts, can and do dictate that they WILL NOT purchase crops from growers that have come in contact with Type II water sources.
