Monday Poll: 78 of 160 respondents (48.75%) are satisfied that the BNSF refueling depot at Hauser Lake poses little threat to the aquifer, as a result of safety measures taken by the railroad. However, 55 of 160 respondents (34.38%) said the depot can never be made safe enough to eliminate all riskes to the sole-source aquifer below. 21 of 160 respondents (13.13%) said they aren't satisfied that the depot is safe. 6 (3.75%) were undecided.
Today's Poll: Are you comfortable with the increasing use of drones by the United States?
