When Teri Albright and her husband retired and bought their dream home in Texas' hill country, she thought they finally had it all...until this summer, when pipeline company Kinder Morgan, while building the Permian Highway pipeline, injected 36,000 gallons of drilling fluid containing toxic heavy metals into the groundwater supply, poisoning Teri’s water well so much that her taps ran thick like mud. Kinder Morgan denied that the drilling fluid was dangerous, despite the fluid producer saying the chemical causes cancer. Now, Teri and others whose once pristine water is now ruined are suing Kinder Morgan for violating the Safe Drinking Water Act.
