Probably nobody likes what could be another potential public relations nightmare about a basic necessity and the most precious commodity here in The Salt River Valley/Watershed - water. We already have the ongoing fraud-and-bribery jury trial of Mesa ex-legislator Gary Pierce using his public office on the Arizona Corporate Commission in a scandal to benefit Johnson Utilities in Queen Creek over the paltry sum of $350,000 and a bribe of $35,000. That amount pales in comparison to over $360,000,000 spent by the City of Mesa for water treatment and wastewater treatment.
The Environmental Protection Agency recently looked into substances called PSFAs and chemicals that are used in those processes.

Governor Ducey Calls On Department Of Defense To Promptly Address Groundwater Contamination In Arizona
PHOENIX — Governor Doug Ducey is calling on the U.S. Department of Defense to take prompt action to address Pentagon-related groundwater contamination near Arizona’s military installations.
In an April 27 letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, Governor Ducey requested DOD to identify and treat water in Arizona contaminated in the areas surrounding four DOD installations and to prevent additional human exposure to PFAS from other DOD facilities in Arizona.
The four installations with known impacts to groundwater—Luke Air Force Base, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Morris Air National Guard Base and the former Williams Air Force Base—are located in the two most populous metropolitan areas in Arizona, and each is surrounded by businesses and residential communities where thousands of Arizonans live, work and rely on clean groundwater for drinking.
The water is contaminated by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
"Ensuring that all Arizonans have the cleanest possible drinking water from public water systems today and for our future is critical for our health and well-being and a top priority of our state,” said Governor Ducey. “The situation in Arizona deserves attention. Arizona, through the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, is acting to contain the spread of PFAS now, and I ask you to make a similar commitment on behalf of DOD for prompt remedial actions to address the DOD-related PFAS contamination of groundwater throughout Arizona and protect the health and safety of Arizonans.”
