I need the help of a knowledgeable environmental expert or some
literature that relates to my problem.  My home town is threatened by a
State of Texas sanctioned program which results in raw sewage being
dumped along a fork of a river which runs into the City' water supply.
The program is for companies which clean out septic tanks and don't want
to pay the high cost of driving the sewage to a treatment plant 20 miles
away.  Further the neighbors are complaining about the smell of human
excrement emanating from the raw sewage dump.

None of the neighbors were notified originally about the commencement of
dumping operations some five years ago.  I understand now that the waste
allowed will be increased some 14 fold based on a new permit provided by
the State without notification of neighbors, the City, the County, etc.
Can anyone point me in the right direction.  I need to stop this
egregious violation of the local environment.
