Will the Wimberley Valley become a sacrifice zone for the Kinder Morgan pipeline?

A sacrifice zone is a geographic area that has been permanently impaired by environmental damage. David Baker, our first responder for environmental assaults, believes this pipeline is the most dangerous threat the Hill Country has ever experienced.  The Wimberley Valley Watershed Association has identified key risks:

The pipeline would run within a mile of Jacobs Well, crossing the Blanco River twice.   

The pipeline could impact flows at Jacob’s Well, Cypress Creek, the Blanco River, Barton Springs, and the San Marcos Springs. Any spill atop the karst systems would be impossible to clean up. This pipeline could, in one fell swoop, contaminate nearly 2 million people’s water.
