Reclaimed Sewer Water To Expand Flagstaff Snowbowl - Suit Filed Over Potential Health Risks

[Bobbieo]

Owners of the Arizona Snowbowl have proposed expanding the ski area and using reclaimed sewer water from the city of Flagstaff to make artificial snow at the ski resort, located on a mountain considered sacred and holy by 13 Arizona tribes, including the Navajo Nation and the Hopi Tribe. The tribes have battled the Forest Service decision all the way to the Supreme Court and even sought President Obama's assistance in protecting the sacred mountain.

The Save the Peaks Coalition and nine citizens filed suit in September in federal district court in Arizona against the Forest Service over potential health risks associated with using the treated sewage effluent, alleging that the Final Environmental Impact Statement ignores the possibility of human ingestion of snow made from treated sewer water.

Legislators claim they need "more clarity" on on the issue.

What part of "shitty water" don't these legislators understand?
