San Angelo – The City of San Angelo has released and shared with us results from the water tests that were conducted earlier in the week. These results include detailed information about the different chemicals that were found in the water.
The handouts, available on the city webpage, “provides supporting information to the attached analytical results. The information below is targeted towards exposure of these compounds in drinking water sources. While there is information available on exposure to these compounds in occupational settings, information can be limited on the presence of these compounds in drinking water. Where possible, the City of San Angelo (City) has provided information related to the presence of these compounds in drinking water rather than exposure in an occupational setting. Analytical results accompanying this handout present the findings from sampling conducted through Thursday, February 11th by the City and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The City has collected 52 individual samples over 4 sampling events in addition to TCEQ performing their own sampling. No abnormal test results have been detected in San Angelo’s system outside of the PaulAnn subdivision and the adjacent industrial area.”

I was stationed in that s***hole.
Lots of dirt...
Sounds like industrial backflow.
I went to Uni there AND was stationed there... worst AFB I have ever been to.
data sabotage.
all links to find out what is quantitatively happening
go in circles.
It sucked. Weekends were get drunk and try to sleep with San Angelo “Rams” girls.
My next duty station was Patrick AFB in Cocoa Beach, so that more than made up for it.
Agree. Fortunately, I was married when I served my sentence.
Looks like meat packers and livestock auctions in the area, and the local landfill (source of the toluene?). One diesel/auto shop shows up, but they shouldn’t be throwing up that much waste. Any dry cleaning plants in the area?

My beloved worked for a while at a business on that side of town.
He doesn’t think it’s because of them.
That said, we both think it *was* intentional......
Avoid the floating turds all is good!

The full list of detected chemicals is also available online, and includes in part:
Benzene
Naphthalene
Acetone
Tetrahydrofuran
Toluene
Acrylonitrile
Styrene
This is still a developing story and we will add updated information as it becomes available.

I will never be going back. I hope the same for you both.
I went to a USAF school there 1982 - 1983. Goodfellow AFB had just come off the closure list. Really bad water. Talked to a water engineer inspecting pipe, he said water mains had suffered badly from lack of maintenance.
I didn’t worry about bad conditions. Has to study extra hours every day but Sunday.
Next base was worth it, though. Norton AFB, Southern California. San Bernardino was a good place to be in 1984.
What a coinkydink.. I went FROM Patrick TO Goodfellow! (was there following Hurricane Andrew, for 4 months.. chose Goodfellow because I knew the area (plus Uni town). Big mistake... well, we WERE able to go to the lake(s) to have cookouts. IF you drank at the club, you had to call a taxi to get to your dorms o.O)
(BTW, the Rams sucked while I was there.. the only actual time I went to the stadium, was when the Permian Panthers played a game there.)
Were you a 9S100?
Yeah, with that list of chemicals, sounds like somebody was dumping illegal waste, and not the AFB.
64570 (WRSK Crew Chief, but useless there, as we had no jets.). I just spent my last couple months there while getting ready to get out (Clinton was just elected).
SoCal in the 80’s must have been awesome.
I’ve never heard of a Crew Chief being stationed at an AETC base and not being an instructor.
It’s actually hilarious.
