They are a company that is mining fracking sand in NE Iowa and would like to expand their exports to include water from Iowa’s Jordan Aquifer. This would have a HUGE impact on the future of Iowans. IMO, much more important than any NR deer issue.

I’d rather not have to drill my farm well deeper to accommodate outside interests.

A week or two ago at my legislator's listening post they brought this up. The water would go to Texas. The state stopped Pattison from doing this in the past in the courts as I recall. I believe the issue was over who actually owns the water. They also said there may be legislation to try and stop it in the future. Allamakee county I believe. I don't remember what they said the water was going to be used for, agriculture, drinking or fracking.
