Mobuoy sits on the banks of the river supplying 60% of our drinking water, we have been asking the questions whats Exactly is in there.
We have come across a list of cancer causing chemicals that have been dumped in Mubuoy this makes for sickening reading and given that Edwin Poots has now tried to rule out a public enquiry, we are apparently not allowed to find out how they got there.
In the dump we have Arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel and mercury, major ions aluminium, iron, manganese and sodium, nitrates, nitrogens, sulphates, chloride and cyanide. Poly-aromatic hydrocarbons - the by-product of burnt carbons like coal and tar such as napthalene - are in there. Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene, the latter used to make tear gas during World War One, have also been identified.
This cannot be allowed to sit feet from our water supply, we suggest you tweet, ring, email facebook message Edwin Poots and the rest of the MLA's and demand not only a public enquiry but that this gets taken away from our water.
This has the potential to make a lot of people sick and for all we know could already be doing so.
We demand action now!!!
