Bixhoma lake was the water supply for Bixby. But they finally had to shut it down for that use several years back, because they could never get the water to pass purity tests. The town now buys it’s water from Tulsa.

I’m not sure if that is what 2J was talking about, but that’s what I know about the lake. I swear when they were using that water in town, I’ve seen water come out of the faucets that was so red and cloudy you couldn’t see thru it...it was bad.

The water was terrible, you’re right. We ended up getting bottled water and still do.

I’d turn on the tub water and black chunks would fall into the tub, I kid you not. I think it was charcoal...Overtaxed is a chemist and that’s what she thought it probably was.
