"The ExxonMobil plant in Baytown, TX, just outside of Houston, for instance, is one of the largest refineries on the planet. It will now need to monitor for the carcinogen 1,3-butadiene, which its self-reported data shows it emits in large quantities."

I've found two common reader misconceptions I want to clarify: 1 - The water TX wants MX to release isn't in Reynosa, or just across the border, it's 450 miles away in La Boquilla, Chihuahua. 2 - Rainfall in the Valley doesn't matter. You need rainfall above the reservoirs.
