I think you'll find environmental groups are concerned about the treatment of produced water, which is oil & gas wastewater, as a "new water" source, which is why the ratio of new to old water sources was changed radically during the session.

Austin TX: Do you know this dog? She was found by the railroad tracks with her leash tangled in bushes. She seems to be in good shape, friendly and taken care of. She's on stray hold at Austin Pets Alive.

It only took visiting Hope in her kennel 6-10 times over the last week to get her to tell me she wanted to leave her kennel and be carried to a yard. Once I knew I could carry her consensually, bringing her home for a break was a less daunting challenge. She's 28lbs & newly spayed.

The last line is incorrect. The enrolled version of SB 1 absolutely includes the section about internet redundancies and there is no flexibility on whether to do that other than to not do it and be noncompliant.

Also in the sick ward, Andy. Frisky boy who would like to eat any treats offered, not offered or secured about my person. And you can see why. It was Andy's crap that landed on my shoe while cleaning out his kennel bedding, poor guy.

Have you met my good buddy, Tenzy? (aka Wombat) He's in the sick ward with some skin stuff and an infection, but that did not at all stop his tail wagging or veritable zoomies in the yard this evening. He is the goodest, gentlest boy.
